Re: Boppa's old yeller truck

Well, kind of a slow night tonight, We've been hitting it pretty hard. Drained the rad and replaced the water neck gasket again. Fixed the drain plug gasket while I was at it. Got glass in today, looks good. Got appraised today by a long time reputable guy, 1's across the board. Got a good number for the ins. co. Boppa got a referral from the app guy and got on the Chrome insurance. Seems like it'll be a good fit. Took it up and put gas in it tonight, runs like crap. I dunno. Seems like 7 cylinders, bad gas, and a vacuum leak all at the same time. The trans still isn't right, but it'll adjust, I think. The efans are coming on at 160 and staying on.? who knows. Anyway, here's some pics-

The Kid wanted to help, so he put on the bowtie and lenses.
