My wiring for the rear lights is done and everything works as it should.
The bumper is also mounted.

Looking great.

I have a 67-72 bumper for mine.

Step is the other way around.

I've only gotten over that too, so my chances of getting a smaller license plate are better, otherwise I have to take a large standard license plate, our registration has no humor, I could change it later if the truck is registered

Your bed is looking great. I like your color choice for the bed wood

The Wood is Douglas fir/Douglasie painted black and sanded and finally preserved twice with teak oil and finally polished.

Painted the lettering and installed the tailgate.
It really looks like I'm enjoying the summer in the Truck.

Now the rims have been painted and the tires mounted,
everything mounted,
I think the truck will soon be on the road,
tomorrow the test engineer will come and do a preview,
I'm excited.

Your truck is looking fantastic. The wheels are a good addition.

Really like the two tone wheels!

Are you going to use the filler plates that go between the box and the bumper? or are you aware of them?

Braunschweiger 03-24-2023 12:02 PM

Re: A '62 has to get back on the road
 
You're just reminding me, no... I don't own it, but I've seen it in the forum before,
I'll probably rebuild it sometime. thanks for reminding

Grizz1963 03-24-2023 12:30 PM

Re: A '62 has to get back on the road
 
Really like the wheels.

Good luck with pre-inspection.

Re: A '62 has to get back on the road
 
We just wanted to go through the truck and discuss what else I need to do.
Now the truck has been officially accepted.
I still have to slap the VIN that we require on the front right of the frame and after the vacation from the test engineer,
I will get my papers and can then legally register the truck.
Thats fantastic.

That is exciting news, Harald. You have done an amazing job with this truck.

Harald,

This really is a credit to you. Looks fantastic.

Morning Harald,

Any further updates?

I know Easter weekend could be four days of government shutdown.

Of course we all wait for good news on your truck.

Braunschweiger 04-11-2023 08:35 AM

Re: A '62 has to get back on the road
 
Thank you that is nice.
I got an appointment for next week, Thursday and can then register the truck, I'll report back.
I had hopefully repaired the fuel gauge and the horn, which made contact while steering and switched on, the famous little things.
