You are one determined guy, We never see rust that bad out here. It looks like it coming together nice? How you digging those grinding boggers at the end of the day? HA HA (Been there on a 27 ford rodster I just finished)
Good luck and God speed |

Re: PO has me PO'd
http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k2...hinTrip385.jpg
finally foumd a place to mount the solenoids for my winch, not to much modification to the mount http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k2...hinTrip382.jpg http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k2...hinTrip383.jpg picked up the new corrected dist. cap from Accel, now all my spark plug wires from the left bank and right bank will stay to each side of the engine. Also, scored a NOS interior light (it's for a pickup, but should fit the 1/2 top), and my brackets for mounting my AM radio...thanks board members http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k2...hinTrip384.jpg |

not everything on my truck is NOS, but where I find a good deal, I'll take it! Found a perfectly good used Unity spotlight for a 1/4 the price of NOS. I'm trying to make my truck look like it might have survived 40 years, so I can't have to much shiny stuff on it http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k2...hinTrip391.jpg |
Re: PO has me PO'd
got a couple hours to play with solenoids, mounted them on the side of the battery tray
