Took a trip to AutoZone to get my fan belts...got back to the shop and dude gave me the 1/2" wide ones instead of 3/8" wide. Took another trip to return them and get the 3/8" ones. Dude gave me ones that were too short. Took another trip and *****ed at them for making me come back a third time. They finally gave me the correct ones....except one of them was the wrong belt in the right package! Took a fourth trip and finally got the right belts. What should have been a 30 minute deal including purchase and installation turned into almost four hours...so my fan belts are in now!
I finished up a little bodywork on the left fender and got it in primer and decided I really needed to see the grille on this pig. It's been too long since it resembled a complete front end. I'm gonna see about getting the front bumper mounted tomorrow. I expect the brackets will need significant modifications, but who knows; maybe I'll get lucky!
