Re: GRIZZ’s English 2001 S10 Extra Cab 4.3 V6 Truck

Good morning after a very short night.

I cooked Nick, John the lodger and myself a lovely chicken curry last night, and in my own case, drank way more than I should have.

Well, a second rum is a rare thing. But usually results in a restless night. But it tasted so good.

Yesterday was one of those MANY JOBS MAKE A DAY kinda days.

Fettling a piece of wood for 2 hours etc.

Started like this.




Sorted some stuff, tidied up stuff and got tools and materials out.

Nick was early, no ringing bells afaik.

By 11.00 I had to run to the village to pick up another brake master cylinder ordered on Friday. £70.00 or about $100.00 at a guess.

Also pharmacy to get some Actifed for Sally who has been sick most of the week and something for me.

Bolted on.

Shiny.



We had hoped the Ford reservoir would fit…..

Looked like a good fit, even initially back to front, but alas…….. the legs are too big to fit in the new holes, which means it needs a different, new reservoir.






Next up, we started to lay the wiring looms for the umpteenth time.



Fuse box and clutch hose mocked up and made up.

Looking encouraging.



Progress.

Looking tidy.



Nick had brought treats for around lunch time.

Short bread cookies.

Time to stand back, discuss, grin, gloat, coffee, plan, enjoy the progress.

Loads of stuff happening in the background, not captured.



More in a bit.
