loudchevy (scott)... thanks!! yea.. the engine issues have REALLY been a setback..I guess that is why hindsight is better.. LOL!! yes I have been driving the truck a little bit.. still trying to figure out the discrepancy between physical engine temp & ECM temp. I had planned on taking it to Dino's...but! I got a wise idea to R-R the gearbox AND.. while doing that i decided to go ahead and get the column rebuilt sooo ... I did not take the truck (not able to get put back together in time) I am now just working on the little items to make it long trip worthy. I am currently working on trying to figure why the dual tanks don't seem to cooperate & the gauge does not work???

thanks for checking my build out.... i will keep checking on yours as well. i sold a nice '72 a few years ago.. so familiar with your to do's too!! LOL!!
