Pulled my gauge cluster to be sent to redlineg.com next week. Going to add vacuum gauge, tachometer and convert the amp gauge to a volt gauge and calibrate the rest.
Also Ordered a rebuilt Saginaw 3-speed overdrive transmission. |

The last couple of horn parts came in from Ididit last night, so I finally got to install my reduced diameter deluxe steering wheel for the last time.

Finished up the wiring under the driver side of the dash, instrument cluster, and steering column. Before I zip tie everything, I thought I had better do a turn signal circuit test. Now, onto the AC.

Now that Spring is close, I hope! I ordered a 63 and 64 Shop Manual so I can have a visual back up. Time to bust butt and get the 64 street ready again.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part IV
Love that green truck!
We have a new Old Man on our ranch. The boss added a '58 One-Ton flatbed. Top speed, fifty going down hill with a stiff tailwind. I wonder how difficult it would be to put a V8 in this thing? https://farm1.staticflickr.com/803/4...d51cfbb5dc.jpg https://farm1.staticflickr.com/865/2...c4e2299565.jpg |

Thank You Mat, they must have changed the design.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part IV
I got my speedometer working! The set screw came out in the elec/mech converter box that grabs the inner cable. I'm really enjoying the simplicity of this model ('63). I watched a youtube on removing the cluster on a 64 and it seems a lot more complicated since all the switches mount thru the cluster.
I also got my retro radio system installed with exception to the antenna. I couldn't find the cable hole into the cable and the antenna wouldn't fit anyway. Guess what I have to order today? :lol: My 'ol frame is a little sore from a couple days of truck yoga :waah: |

I finally hooked up my speedo last week as well, I still need an adaptor because the speedo is off by 12-13 mpg (truck shows slower than real speed). I have to do the tire/pumpkin calculation and order one. I had to get the truck lifted up so I could connect the cable. No way to bend my arm the way it needed while the truck was on the ground, without breaking something ;).
