Re: '69 Longbed Daily Driver - Project

welp, she's on the road again, as my daily driver. I made the maiden voyage last sunday from cedar falls to des moines (2 hrs) with no issues. Been driving it all week and only had a couple issues come up. The first was the manual compressor switch that i installed to cut the power to the compressor so it doesn't kill my battery when sitting over night. the switch just broke, so i had to replace it.

the other issue was that my pressure switch in the tank made contact with the bed cross member and shorted out. I knew it was close and had planned to change it this weekend, but apparently the bed shifted a bit and made contact. So, for right now it's hard wired and i use the main power switch to stop the compressor when it gets up to 150psi or so. I'm really happy i put that switch in now

here are the pics:
