Re: 1947 S10 4x4 Blazer swap

thanks, It is going to take some time before the front end is done though. Lots of bodywork to do on the fenders and hood. But I get your point

As far as the paint, it is 'Almond' color. It is Rustoleum paint from Lowes. That color only comes in a quart size. Very simple to use, just have to reduce it a little bit with acetone so that it will go through the spray gun. I didn't even measure it when I reduced it. It drys a little slow, but I still didn't get much dust settling in it before it dried, and my shop was very, very dirty when I sprayed.

Today I bled my brakes and changed the engine oil. then I drove it up and down my street. Sounded good, but it wouldn't shift out of 1st gear. I still have not hooked up the speed sensor for the speedometer, so I hope that is all it is. If not, I have no idea where to look for the problem.
