Re: 53 Surburban "Family Truckster"

I have been putting in time on Coopers OBS Blazer so I have not been working on my the Suburban. Plus I'm still waiting on my buddy to glue my block back together. I did go out last night to work on it a little. it is funny how you have a plan when you are constantly working on something. Step away for a bit and you loose track of what's next....

One aspect of my last build that I was not fond of was the wiring (which I was responsible for). That truck had SO MANY circuits. I figured a little better preplanning will go a long way. I installed a removeable panel to mount most of the circuit boards to. I drilled a hole and inserted a grommet for a wire pass thru.

I also ran out at lunch an grabbed a small section of SS 1.5" tube to complete my cooling hoses. I will paint it satin black at some point. For the lower hose I was able to use a 1.75" - 1.5" 90 degree elbow. It worked great.

Thank you
Marc
