Here my dad tapped the new water pump for the temperature sender. The bolt is where he first tried to tap it, but after he drilled the first hole he realized that there was not going to be enough room for the temperature sender. So he drilled a new hole for it to go where it is now, and tapped the hole for the bolt.

We also got all the trim on the truck, excluding the bed.

This is the wheel spacers we got that have the right hub centric size for the wheels, but the hole was to small to sit around the hubs on the truck. So my dad put them in his lathe and machined them to fit. I now just need to pull the wheel off and make sure that they do fit, and if they do I can hopefully put them on to stay.
