Nice weather today, so I decided to take my panel for a drive. While warming up in the driveway it ran out of gas - gauge still showing 1/4 tank! Good thing I wasn't 10 miles down the road! My drive was canceled as I had to go to the next town (no gas stations in my town) for a can of non-ethanol premium. "Adjust sender float" added to my to-do list.

After that I cut a patch to fill the parking brake hole in my floor. I should have filled it when I was building the truck but I was too fixated on just getting it driving. It will be hidden under carpet so I'll just stick it on with some panel adhesive.

I'm really liking my truck's new murdered-out look, minus beauty rings. Looks more utilitarian like a panel truck should.
