Had the day off and installed the patriot clipster headers, the new cut/balanced driveshaft, a standard distributor (got rid of the Electronic Spark Control type distributor) hooked up the starter. Just need to add ATF, coolant, install the shifter, a new set of plugs, figure out the generator to alternator conversion, and this thing will be ready for a resucitation attempt. Will try the new CPR and it should live again! I expect to see Jimmy Hendrix, the beatles, and Howard Cosell, the Byrds, and the Troggs come running out of the fog when it lights up with open headers!!! Also the neighbors (and my wife) will probably call 911, but its the birth of a new life for this old 1960 truck. Can't wait!!
