Sold a "Blam-blam" I wasn't using. Drove 250 miles each way (to SF, CA) to collect the dough so I can buy some wheels.

Welded the burb's hood hinge back together. Much better having two hinges vs one and an arm/stick holding up the hood.

Fabricated and connected my 1972 steering column to my 2001 power rack and pinion.

To see all the progress check out the Crew Cab build thread Young Frankenstein.

I really didn't want to take this to the "other gearhead" thing of mine. I shouldn't have said anything non-truck. But.........

Bought some upper/lower ball joints, inner and outer tie rod ends, and some drop shocks for the front end rebuild. I will start that on Monday. Chopped up a 92 s-10 blazer bumper to make a gravel guard that goes all the way across the rear bumper. Turned out good. Installed the toggle/kill switch for the HEI.

Must've got what you needed from the 45. Post up some pics of your wheels when you have a chance.
