Re: '72 C3500 GMC flatbed project

Not much to report this weekend, waiting on parts mostly.

1. Found out the points weren't properly bolted down inside the distributor, at the expense of the integrity of the new muffler and a cold dark hour on the side of the road

2. R&R'd the heater controls and put screws through the face to hold the bracket to the faceplate - my '69 is like this as well, nice and secure now!


3. R&R'd the cowl, cleaned out 15 lbs of leaves and twigs and rotted organic matter from the cowl vents.

4. Removed the wooden bedside boxes from the frame


Next weekend I'm picking up the '67 C30 dump to get ready for hydraulics swapping into this truck
