Same here! The wiring is a MESS, its going to be a huge headache...
I was going to post this sooner BUT, life, work, family, all that good stuff got in the way.
I hate my previous owner because...
He claimed he drove it every day, but there were only three LOOSE bolts holding the transmission... Noticed when I got it home.
For screwing these into the bed on both sides, THANKS! (NOT!)
For screwing into the cab in crazy places with strange screws. Thanks again!
For painting the dash black, with an old pair of underwear taped to a stick. The pic doesnt really show it, but its done extremely poorly. Funny, someone did the SAME thing to my 78!
Rivets and bondo.... rivets and bondo... RIVETS AND BONDO!!!!
For changing to the a manual. That's cool, but it was done very poorly as you can see.
For screwing up the engine perches, and having to BOLT the engine down with a CHAIN. WTF!?!?!?!?!
In addition to the engine perches, they CUT with a TORCH the transmissionn crossmember, installed a strange one with LOOSE bolts holding the transmission down. WTF! Oh, and the manual steering gear box bolts were FINGER LOOSE, no wonder the steering was wobbly!
Heres those engine perches I was talking about!
There were so many safety issues with this truck, thank god I didnt try to drive it home! I towed it on a U-Haul dolly!
