Looks Good! Do they make you add side markers over there?

Unfortunately yes. They're turn signals, as are the reverse lights at the rear. Any car built after '65 has to have orange turn signals as opposed to all red. It looks ok, I only gave it a quick detail - always more to be done!

need the hinges for a non-spoiler rear window. I might still have mine from when I added the rear spoiler to my truck. I'll see if I still have them and let you know.




That's a fine looking truck. Hopefully mine will look this good someday. :tup:

"syzilla"

The front clip came off in about 5 minutes, and the cladding in about 10. About 10 more for the bed to remove the 2 bolts that held it in.

Before and after shot of my front end rebuild part 1. New half shafts, propshaft, rotors, pads, hubs. And once I figure out how to get the swaybar back on, that counts as new as well. Also sanded all the rust (god bless a drill and a steel brush) and repainted everything with some heavy duty rust killer and under coating paint. God it's like night and day looking at it now. Gonna sand the rest of the frame and work my way to the back with this stuff.

Round 2 will be new a-arm bushings, upper and lower. New tie rods and sleeves, both inner and outer. Plus new pitman arm and idler arm.

Round 2.5 (or 3) will be a front diff cleaning and rebuild.


Then its on to the back end.

Re: Post a pic of your truck taken today

Looks like crap but there's actual progress there. I've finally found a spot under the dash for the two "translators", if that's the right word, for the temp ga and the fuel pressure ga. The yellow wire if for an elec oil pres ga. Obviously not finished but I'm finally somewhat pleased with the under dash wiring.

what translator are you using for the stock temp gauge? I was just going to use a secondary syty temp sensor and feed that to the cluster.
