worked on the truck tonight
 
so i worked on the truck tonight!!! gotta call my insurance agent tommorow to get it added to my policy, shouldnt be to expensive since it wont be my daily driver

-got all 4 wheels polished finally
-changed the oil and filter, 7quarts of mobil1 sucks on my wallet
-re-ran the wire from the temp sender to the gauges(probably wont fix the problem, but worth the try)

now for stuff i found,
-few of my collector bolts were missing.... exhaust leaks ftl
-a vacuum cap on the carb dry rotted off causing well, a vacuum leak. easy fix when i go to the store


the tires have flat spots(cant see them but can feel them) from sitting so long. afte 10-15 minutes of driving it goes away(only shakes above 40mph)
if they dont fix on there own, i may have to remove the flat spots, with a couple burn outs

oh and here's a new pic of the engine, not much has changed in the last year but figured i would post it anyway.
