Re: 1968 C20 Build

Long time without an update: the prop shaft parking brake issue really has me stymied and annoyed. Truck is ready to drive, but I just won't take it on the road without an e brake.

But, there's been a little progress here and there. With the help of a thread on the board here I manage to wire in my 5 gauge, along with the ammeter, which was challenging but rewarding.

When cleaning up under the seat and removing all the old tarpaper I found the original keys, next time I will check there first before replacing cylinders.

Also found some rather worn old 1968 hubcaps, they were the nicest ones I could afford for this project, and truth be told I still paid more than I did for the truck, lol. That was when I noticed that the E350 wheels I have on the truck are the later, "nubless" kind. Oh well, I will figure something out.
