Re: Frankentruck

Got a lot done over the last few days of the decade.
I was tired of the red letters in the grille, so I repainted them black. While the paint was out, of course I had to paint the tailgate letters. Yes, I used the same black house paint that my bedroom was painted with many years ago.

I finally got the windshield washer and coolant reservoir from the Ford mounted up for good. I like where it sits, and I didn't have to drill any additional holes in the firewall. I also still had a spot for the overdrive relay.

I swapped out the old dome light housing with busted clips to the $5 junkyard find with great clips. No more tape holding the dome light in.
