Re: 1947 Panel Truck Frame swap with ’88 k2500

I like that idea, I might go with some spacers for the shift body.
I mounted the fuse panel to check for fit, pulled it back out and removed several wires that were going to the convenience center. I wired in the DRAC, and then mounted the fuse panel again. Look at all those wires! I’ll take my time with that rats nest. I started to rebuild the heater. I had opened it up 20 years ago to put in a 12 volt motor, and again about 5 years ago to have the core repaired. This time was a full teardown for repaint. I’m still looking for some Hammered Bronze. I did get a can of Hammered Dark Bronze from the first store I checked, they had one can. I’ve been to two more stores that had shelf tags, but no cans.
I installed the transfer case shifter and cut the floor cover, now where did I put the wireing for that?
The cowl vent hinge is repaired and now I need the bolts to put that together. The windshield wiper mechanism is missing an E-clip, the one I got is too big. I did get the correct screws for the defroster ducts, installed the driver side. I’ll put in the wiper mechanism before installing the passenger side defroster duct.
