Re: Project 78 High Sierra

Well did a lot of work to the truck today. Sanded the cab corner sides and painted them to get rid of the surface rust.

Installed the hood.

Painted the hood (Turned out so so...too windy)

Installed the cab band

Installed new door sills

Removed the sub and amp

Neighbor helped and put bondo on my patches and shaped them a bunch.

Put various parts back in the interior

A ground frayed on the back of the cluster so i removed it and soldered it back together

Also tuned the carb and got her running better. Turn out the choke was opening too quickly. One more notch forward and boom!! Started and didnt try to stall.

Much more to do and i may be getting rid of her...Have no fear though, if i do it will be a trade for a 71....We will see next week
