Well I was hoping to dig in and get to cutting out rust in the rockers and doors, but instead helped my friends daughter move into her first apartment. about the time we finished up it started raining... No cutting and welding happened, so we hung out in the wood shop and polished off a bottle of JD Tennessee honey.

Painted two more "panels" this morning.
Tailgate and pass bedside.

I finished those two panels at 12:30. It was 102.
It went to 107 here today.

Two more tomorrow (driver's bedside and driver's front fender)
if I'm not dead.

Got my new aluminum radiator installed and cleaned up a bit of grease and grime buildup while I had the fan / shroud off. Turned out great and works like a charm! Gave it a good wash and took some pictures last night of the closer-to-finished product (slowly but surely...). I'll get a few posted this evening.

[Expat_dude]

Headliner 75% in. It's in, but needs final adjustments and cuts (slots)

And thanks to all for getting the parts to me fast. I really appreciate it.

Magwakeenercrew I give you credit doing you own paint job, lots of work, it looks real good and you saved lots of coin.

Finally got to the point of having to make a final decision on paint color!

Made my choice and left a substantial donation at the PPG store. Had to be mixed, matched and test sprayed for color, will get it tomorrow.

Now its time to pull my big boy shorts up and get busy!!!

[Toxic Orange]

Ground (-) to any good ground (-); and hot (+) to the wiper (always hot when the key's on) circuit.

[profe56]

Thanks: Just a question; (+) needs a fuse between the choke and wiper.

[profe56]

Forgot to say is Rochester choke and only has (+) connector.

Installing temperature gauge, I just want to make sure the engine is not overheating, I couldn't install it on the head because I don't have a 13/16 tool, I can't believe it.

Happy Father's day tomorrow in advance
