Well, no matter how dirty it gets, I would say 1 truck that runs all the time is better than 4 that always need working on. Maybe if I had one I could focus and make it run more often. Here's my status:
87 - Leaking injector -> diesel spraying on exhaust manifold. Is this bad?
86 - Frame painted, wheels powder coated, otherwise a pile of parts.
84 - Still working on the rear diff. Anyone know how to get stubborn pinion races out?
75 - After carb rebuild won't idle less than 1200 rpm. Diesels when I shut it off with the idle set so high.

Anyhow, I keep making progress slowly, I need to quit working so I have more time to work on my trucks!!!
