Doing a little rearranging in my shop to get the bed back on the chassis. Finished wiring up the bed lights and the instrument cluster lights.

I was finally able to install one of the Saginaw 3 speed OD transmission's I have. Have to get the drive shaft shortened as this trans is 5" longer then my stock one.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part IV
Drove the old man into town to do errands. I do get tired spending an hour outside O'Reilly's trouble-shooting the tail lights... This time it seems to have been a fuse... I think.

Removed the last 2 pieces of the original "headliner" material out of my Sub. Found a nice rusty spot above the dome light from where I had a magnetic XM Radio antenna mounted with the cord run through the roof. Going in for knee surgery the 18th, so trying to clean up the roof so I can paint the inside of the roof with oil base paint, then get some foil backed foam from Home Depot to put on it. Will have a custom headliner made after the truck gets painted, from a friend who does custom work here in the Verde Valley. Got some of the inside sanded today and removed the 2 6X9 speakers. I didn't realize how long the bedsides were until I started sanding them.

Pulled the blower and made my own gasket because all the speed shops are closed and usually don't carry them anyways. Install a new msd 8570 and set the timing. My old distributor was so rusty it wouldn't advance. I pop the cap once in a while to look but I didn't think it was that bad. All in all it's been a good weekend and the truck is flying again!

Pulled what was left of the inline six and three speed manual trans out. Probably just a few nice days left then I am done for the season, don't have a heated shop.

I got my new under bed tank installed and plumbed. Works great. Took it for a test drive and blew out a brake line. Bought new brake lines, haven't installed yet.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part IV
I did a tape measure wheel alignment and took my truck for its first drive in almost three years. I upgraded to disc brakes, which turned into a crossmember swap. I added power steering, I wanted to run a later model serpentine setup. The one I found was attached to a 95 tbi motor with the 4l60e, naturally I left it attached and put the whole lot in. Cut up the original harness and stripped out what I didn't need, made it a couple feet shorter. The whole thing got out of hand. Everything was done on a shoestring budget. It runs and drives amazing, the overdrive is awesome. Still have a bunch of stuff to do but it runs and drives finally, going to make it a daily driver, it was before the upgrades with the original 283 stick.

My truck had one West Coast Jr Mirror when I bought it. It has been giving me trouble for a while now and if finally broke at the bottom from rusting out, so I went with a stock mirror for now. I just put it on today and had to drill out the old screws that were in there for 50 plus years. I soaked them with oil and even tried heat but it was burning the paint Oh fun. I will probably paint them white. I saved the old mirror and maybe I can weld it back together. I had to use Gorilla Tape to keep it together. :lol:
