Finished painting my frame and installed a new ps box from a 78 square on my 68 k10 short step. Will be dropping in my new crate 350 tbi/700r4/241c passenger drop combo next. Also debating whether to remove the clutch fork bracket on top of the frame or not. What do you all think, yes or no?

Not Today but on Monday night I got my fuse panel for my '35 a little closer to installing. Also updating the ignition switch and trying to color code the wiring. PO used red wires for everything.

Had a mouse urine smell while I was driving so today in investigated . The outer heater box was cut by a prior owner most likely to replace the heater core made my life easier by far . Found a little evidence in there and just a bit in the inside box . Blew high pressure air into the fan area and stuff came out the cowl vent . Removed the vent and found a big nest . Cleaned it out sprayed some Lysol in there and the smell is gone . I hate mice

Packrats are worse. They line the area around the nest with cactus spines. And their feces is a source of Hanta Virus that killed Gene Hackman's wife.

I was staring at the engine trying to get the ambition to try to get it fired up after putting EFI on it, and I noticed that one of the engine stand bolts looked like it was loose. Sure enough, it was, so I checked the other three and they were loose too! Now I am going to go over all the bolts on the engine and trans to make sure I didn't miss anything else. They say the memory is the first thing to go...
