Re: Frankentruck

Got a lot of stuff done on Frankentruck today. I repaired the reverse light bucket that had rusted out with some JB weld, stuck the antenna back together with some JB weld, painted the buckets with some rust reformer paint, and made the bracket for the washer/coolant resivor. I painted the bracket when I did the buckets.

I pulled the heater controls out so I could grease up the defrost cable and discovered that the controls have a light socket provision to illuminate the controls when the dash lights are turned on. I robbed a light socket from my old cluster and wired it up.

Last thing for the night was taking the Christmas lights off
