Well Sun while out for a drive the mirror head fell off. It broke of course but I retrieved it and yesterday took it to the glass and mirror shop and they cut me a new one and glued it in. I used some Loctite 609 to epoxy the head back on the base and we're back in business. Stupid foreign made crap anyway. I also put a tack weld on the mirror ball cause I got tired of keep having to adjust the d#%n thing.

Started removing the purple window tint. Razor blade scraped the tint film off. Lacquer thinner and a towel took care of the glue residue. I was pleased to discover the windows have factory tint and all the glass looks to be OEM.

Installed the 327 in the truck this evening. Everything on the bottom installed and hooked up. Hoping to bring it to life tomorrow evening.

Bent and installed brake lines from the new master. First time doing it, but I think it turned out pretty good.

Engine started right up! So glad I decided to upgrade to power steering. No leaks. Engine runs smooth.

Started varnishing my bed wood. After a year of working on the truck I am getting close to hitting the road again. I wish I had started a build thread.

Yeah, it's a project. The truck as is runs, stops (slowly), most things seem to work, frame is solid, engine has been replaced at some point, most body work is solid. It apparently had some sort of professional undercoat applied earlier in it's life. It is flaking off now, but the metal underneath looks 45 years younger. Has a little rust in the usual places, some unique electrical wiring, oozes fluids here and there, but overall a decent start. Initial plan is to get it safe and drive it, and plan the next steps. |
