Re: the rebuild begins next week for the 1966 c10

Finally got the wind shield out. What a pain. I have all new seals to install. the back window seems easy. But the front looks to be a pain. Anyone have any advice? Please send it. I have the LMC seals.
Still can't get the drive shaft out of the trans. But I did get the u-joints at the half shaft. Pulled apart the barrier bearing setup. I bought the wrong one to replace it. So another trip to Auto Zone. yeah!
Pulled out all the old air valves for the bag system. Need to figure out a new mounting place for the air manifold setup. I dont have access to a welder at the garage. So might have to get it running first then place it someplace to get the welding done. Like a place to hold the valves, and stuff.
Installed the head light wiring i ordered from LMC. got rid of the speaker wires that used to run the head lights. Mounted the relays and hid all the other wires. I will have to rewire the whole engine bay. Ive cut out most of the make shift wiring the truck came with. Trying to make it look some what stock. Or at least neat and minimal as possible. Inside I installed new interior dome light lence, new head light switch.
Still have to go buy new air lines for the air ride system. Waiting on a engine stand from a buddy so i can start bolting all the stuff back to the long block. Should start putting together the front end this weekend too.
I'm tired of tearing apart, I want to start putting together.
