Re: Build that 71 402 already

Installed a proper battery in this. That took well over a year to get, seemed they stopped making them with covid mentality. But they're punching them out again. That and the air cleaner decal finishes the engine bay.

Bumpers are supposedly done. It's 500 miles round trip, so when they declared them done the first time I asked a guy to inspect them. Apparently the front had been scratched. Crossing my fingers.

The upholstery guy is slowly working on the seat, needs a spring or two. We plan to install that and carpet before December, declare it done. Unbelievable, I thought I'd finish by July 2022.

With assys, the guide accts for 1000s details such as OEM identifications& part numbers, written in short order. 700+ images include assm, illust., charts, and points of interest. Much of the info. applies to all 67-72 GM trucks, and to a lessor degree all 67-72 GM vehicles. My build thread, and more on the guide https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/...d.php?t=730025
