**sirJim** · 09-27-2017, 04:16 PM

Got some of the small stuff done tonight.
Peter rejuvenated the blinker switch on the steering column, and adjusted the cable.
pcv connected.
Exhaust tip cut off.
A little rust touch up painting.
Need to do some jetting adjustments on the Quadrajet. A bit to rich.

Is that a one time tax for as long as you own the vehicle? Do you also have to pay other fees such as licensing and road use?

yep it is for the first registration in Denmark . And yearly license i dont know what that Will be. Since it is antikke (35 years old )it only gets inspected every 8 years.

I like the blinker on the side idea, probably a requirement for you. I am putting in some round clearance lights on the side of my 65 Suburban, and thought about getting some that could be used as turn signals as well. How did you wire them in?

Ran Them over to drivers side and put a conector to the blinker conection that plugs into the firewall. And of course grounded the other wire.

Nice truck! Where did you get the radiator hoses? I thought I tried stock hoses and they didn't work for me.

**sirJim** · 10-26-2017, 12:06 AM

They were stock hoses off Ebay.
Had to "adjust" the length to get them in the right position.
I will try to find the part nr when I get around to it.

One of them is all I could find Gates 20416.

I think the other was.
Gates 20475 not sure though.

**sirJim** · 10-28-2017, 01:58 PM

Did some work on the quadrajet. Checked needle and jet size. Gasket float lever. Big improvement.

**sirJim** · 11-12-2017, 04:27 AM

Found this on the front seat.

**sirJim** · 11-12-2017, 04:34 AM

Just paid the taxes on it, now to wait for licence plates.
Getting ready to put it in storage soon for the winter.
Now to wait for better weather and get out and really drive it.
Havent been able to do much but test up and down the road with test plates on.

**Captainfab** · 11-13-2017, 12:28 AM

Yes that is the unfortunate reality for many of us. If you want your truck to stay decently nice, you can't drive it during the winter time. Do they use any sort of deicer on the roads in Denmark?

**sirJim** · 11-14-2017, 11:07 AM

Yes they use lots of salt.

**sirJim** · 11-23-2017, 04:35 AM

Got the rims finished polishing. Not in too bad of shape. Anyone have knock offs or center caps?

**Captainfab** · 11-23-2017, 10:45 PM

Are those factory aluminum wheels?

**sirJim** · 11-24-2017, 04:53 AM

I really dont know the markings say gmc BCo50781 but other than that?

I'm probably wrong, but didn't the 82 Chevy pickups and Suburbans come from the factory with these wheels? I remember dark blue pickups with these on them. Found this, but it's an 87

**sirJim** · 11-24-2017, 06:30 AM

Those are close, few extra holes.
Looks like you are right 80´s standard rims.
found some on ebay
Now I just have to find some caps or knockoffs

New rear brake shoes and cylinders. They needed it. Merry Christmas!

**Captainfab** · 12-26-2017, 01:41 AM

Yes they were worn down a bit.

Merry Christmas!

**sirJim** · 01-11-2018, 05:50 AM

We got a bit of the loose ends tied up last night.
Replaced the water pump that was leaking a bit.
New balencer as the 50 year old one was showing its age.
"Lambda" O2 sensor to adjust the carb to 14.7 close 15 average after a fine tune of the idle screws.
Got the new windshield rubber from Steele Rubber maybe next week we will get that replaced the other one is just not working out.
Along with new felts.

**Captainfab** · 01-12-2018, 12:55 AM

It sounds like you are making some good progress. How has the Winter weather been over there?

**sirJim** · 01-12-2018, 03:04 AM

Global warming has done a job. now snow and only 3 days of freezing weather in the 20F But lots of rain.

**sirJim** · 03-15-2018, 03:09 AM

After fighting with the windshield rubber (Just wouldent work) replaced it with the Steele ruber one and 2 hours and the help of a couple friends its sitting perfect.
