Took a 4 port plate and made it a three. It's not machinist quality, but not bad for a hand grinder. ;) This fitting will go on the bottom of the inner fender to get the heater hoses thru and the low side hose from the compressor. http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/t...8F0CA7BB8A.jpg http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/t...AC/ACplate.jpg |

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Looks great hey I got a ? When you did your vent windows how did you get your glass to stay in mine slides in and out very easy I can't find the rubber that goes in the frame before the glass anywhere and I don't know what type of glue or sealant will hold it in seeing that you have done this and your work is great figured you were the one to ask ya know lol thanks

I think LMC sells the tape or contact your local glass company. Take the parts with you. |

I picked these moulded hoses up to install on the inside of the cab. Since I had to flip the 4 port bulkhead around I had to adjust my plans little. http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/t...2-11-25001.jpg It allowed me to install the heater hoses without kinking the hoses. I still need to install some hose clamps once I get them. http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/t...2-11-25003.jpg All hoses in place underneath. http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/t...2-11-25007.jpg http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/t...2-11-25008.jpg Home made hose seperators. http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/t...2-11-25009.jpg http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/t...2-11-25011.jpg Side view with tire in place. http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/t...2-11-25012.jpg Wheels full lock to the left. There is plenty of clearance. ;) Still need 3 more fittings to finish top side. http://i606.photobucket.com/albums/t...2-11-25013.jpg |
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
The hose routing is awesome and I especially like the zip-ties...

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Very nice work Alan! On the glass setting tape, you did the right thing since it was a little loose with one layer and didn't have thicker tape. Its supposed to be tight, we usually have to use a special glass puller to get vents out of the frames and regulator tracks off. It is okay to use adhesive, but only at the ends-less than an inch on each end so the glass will come out later.
Also, I saw your want ad for bumper filler plates. Have you thought about just making a pair? The outer bent edges don't show once bolted up and it's easy to make the dimples with a ball bearing and socket. If you want to make your own I can send one of mine to uses as a pattern. http://i557.photobucket.com/albums/s..._2926261_n.jpg Posted via Mobile Device |

Yes I have thought about making some. I had two old sets somewhere. I can't seem to located them. Thanks for the offer. I might make a template from cardboard. If that doesn't work I'll let you know. There is a guy about 30 miles from me that has a set for sale. I might make the journey. Quote:

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Wow Alan, what a journey! I really enjoyed this build. I sure hope my truck turns out anything in the neighborhood of that nice. I just bought a 63 LWB that I plan to drive for awhile till I have my 69 done. I am 5 weeks sober, and I think your truck is stunning
