Re: 51' 3100 build in PA New to Site

Nov 26th weekend

Some more pros and cons. So I re bled the clutch. Took it for a test drive (with no breaks, yikes) It was the official inauguration run I guess you could say. Ironically, a year to the day is when I first decided ok I am going to just
build one of these trucks. I proceeded to buy my first parts from a 48' gmc last year on black friday, this year I drove one. However the 51' didn't really start until January.

Anyway, clutch MC and Slave are both leaking, so I kind of figured that is why it was loosing pressure. So I am going to be replacing them this weekend hopefully. Breaks are still giving me shiziitt so I tried bleeding the MC on it again and it seemed fine. So back to the drawing board there.

Played around with trying to get the sending unit from the original tank to read. My problem is my sending unit wire is not getting power, so I have to call EZ wiring up and see why that is. But my goal is to get the OG sending unit working and I want to adapt that into the s-10 tank.

Worked on the carpeting a bit. Have to cut and sew the top of my tranny hump and she is all done. I can say, I don't particularly like doing carpeting. also here is a rear shot, since I don't seem to take too many of those. This is with out the running boards and fenders obviously.

Lastly. Had the dump truck out to tow my buddy. I still got to put the windshield in. Not enough time on the weekends for me.
