I guess I have been pretty lazy about updates, here are a few things I have gotten done.

The tranny cooler worked out real well.

I got all the heater hoses and vacuum lines hooked up... I used a later model evaporater and accumlator, gonna try to go more modern with the AC.



I built a gas pedal mount, it was a copy from another member (TR65 I think).

Not sure but I may like my first one better

Having a problem getting the pedal to line up like I want.

Yeah, after months of looking and pricing I finally made a decision on what I wanted but now it looks like financing is gonna be a problem for the wheels. May have to get something smaller now and upgrade later... oh well, back to the drawing board.

Thanks for the compliments, it looks like I am still several months away on the whole truck being done but some pieces ready to put on.
