[57taskforce]

Thanks guys! I don’t have much in the way of pictures but today was an excellent day of work. My brother came and helped me all afternoon, we cleaned out and yanked bed one last time for a while and finished grinding down the plug welds on the back of the cab corners, the plug welds on the bottom of the outer rockers, touched up the paint under neath from welding the rockers in, and primed the cab corners and the welds on the outer rockers. I also installed the dust cover on the transmission, replaced the water pump, adjusted the valves, installed the bedside tool box liner and door, cleaned the windshield inside and out, Pressure washed the oil off the firewall and inner fenders from running the valves, put it on my geico policy, AND DROVE IT HOME. Plan is to get it registered on Monday morning. I drove it about 20 miles just taking my time in the dark with my brother following behind me. I need to work on the carb some as it falls on its face past about 3/4 throttle. I’m sure it’s something simple there. Other than that everything else went very smooth... well with the exception of not putting enough gas in it to get to the gas station when I left the shop. It ran out at the intersection where the gas station I was headed too was. My brother was in my company truck(We work for the same company) so I jumped out and grabbed the gas can in the back of that truck. No harm no foul I guess. It was a great day. Of course my brother took the only pic of the day and didn’t know how to hold his phone to get it to come out right on here.
