Im still gonna give her a good look... Thanks for the heads up

Sweet! So you got it home delivered all safe and sound?! Glad to see you took it to a show. Can't wait to take mine to one now that it's running again! Looks like there were some other sweet trucks there too!

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius

Ive been working on getting the gauge cluster working. I bought the brushed version of NoLimit's aluminum cluster and a set of AutoMeter gauges
Sooo, out with the old...

In with the new!



Now all the gauges have small filament bulbs that needed power, so I made this little power distribution block and one for the grounds

OOOOOHHHHH boy! wire spaghetti, YAY!

Then I picked up some yellow LEDs for turn signal indicators and a blue one for my high beam indicator.

Still have yet to get these hooked up, Hopefully I can get them on and going before I leave for my trip next month.
Enjoy!

Oh so that is how its gonna be! LOL, I actually spent quite some time with my face pressed against my computer screen trying to read what was written there but thought ahhhh I'll just ask...what could possibly go wrong.

Maybe when I start my own fender company I can afford a bigger computer screen and make fun of old blind people.

In these pics the truck looks higher than in the most recent. Did you do something else with the suspension?
