Re: "Wish I had a tricky name for my project" project
That first post picture was the day I picked it up. New tires, new gauges, and removal of the wiring that wasn't needed, along with a general wiring cleanup (there's several frayed and shorted wires.
Here's what it looks like now:
It's my first pickup, but i'm no stranger to owning/fixing cars. The truck was overheating because the timing was 20 degrees out, and the carb was 1.5 turns too lean. It runs so well right now, but there's a little oil fouling in #6, and there's definitely a bunch of blow by. it's not severe yet, and I'm on the fence about fixing it further, because I'm thinking the future holds airbags and a 5.3 and automatic swap. someone tack welded in diamond plate to the bed. The bed misalignment on the passenger side is because there's a broken support. It's just kind of flopping around. I'll fix it when I do the floors.
