Finally pushed the old guy out of the garage for a little sunshine the other day. For a little color I test fitted the heater delete plate.

A few pictures of the DBW pedal bracket. the overall design was borrowed from TR65 build. I did add the threaded pipe union so the bracket could be adjusted correctly.

And a few pictures of the pedal and bracket mounted to the brake pedal assembly. Still need to find the correct angle for the linkage and weld it in place.

Thanks Phillip. Now that Evan's football season is over maybe I will have a little more time for the truck.

Over the weekend I installed the new grille mounting panel. Almost looks like a complete truck again. Today I picked up a few pieces after being powder coated. I will try to post some pictures tomorrow.

Thanks guys. I sold my 406ci last week to a friend of mine to concentrate on the 5.3 swap. One of the conditions of the sale was that I get to hear it run again. I will post up a video of it. Here is a picture of the cam card. A little big for an every day driver but it sure was fun to drive. Not to mention it did turn a few heads.
