The last wheel cylinder finally gave up the ghost. I pulled the axle, the drum, replaced the bad part, cleaned the shoes, repacked the wheel bearings and put it all back together in an hour and a half. Now that I'm good at it there's no more to replace.
Drove it out to Pacific Raceways again last weekend. The truck seems to be popular with drunken race fans. So far I've put over 200 miles on the truck and I've taken care of one rattle at a time. New window channel and fuzzies made a huge difference and I took off the mirror extenders that only seemed to be useful for collecting leaves and branches on the driveway. I sanded more of the mill scale off the hot rolled steel on the bumpers. I cursed myself the whole time for not having the patience when I built it to wait and get cold rolled plate. Next time. Then I D.A.'d it and reapplied Penetrol.
Next up is making some headway on the unfinished rear fenders and running boards.
