Re: Resurrection of a Family Friend

Thanks to a couple local vender type people (DC Trucks in Vancouver and Classic Bowties in Portland) 2 of my hard to find pieces are now in my posession. Gotta round up the right bolts then the front driveline is ready to go in.

I threw my jumper pack on the truck last night to check power. My stereo still works, CB works, all lights work except RR marker and both brake lights. Blinkers are very slow too, so I think there is some corrosion in the fuse block. Low beams dont come on right away, you have to step on the dimmer switch a few times. I think the starter is dead, or close to it as it acts like there is a nearly dead battery in it, even off my jumper pack, so I may borrow the battery out of one of the cars I have before buying a nice one for the truck.

No new pics, he's still happily living in my garage next to my blue Neon. Still cracks me up that the only new car my dad ever bought, and the only new car I've ever bought now park side by side in my first house's garage.
