Re: Build that 71 402 already
Just an update. Outside a carb and compressor rebuild, and a few other accessories. I'm nearly done pending paint prison. I'm currently installing brackets and such on the long block. Some of the "new" stuff don't fit like the old, powder coat will do that. I gave into selected NOS Wittek clamps. I just need to solve the radiator hose clamps, though I likely won't install tower clamps. Things are looking nice, I'll take some pics in a few weeks of "phase 1 of 3".
Other than that, I like trivial stuff. I took notes on how to assemble this truck, right down to the bolts, but just realized this connection (triangles) as I'm rebuilding it. Almost like it was a kit?
