New to me 1965 c10 (need to fix electrical drain and lower rear end)

So I bought the truck I was posting about the other day. Lady wanted $10,500 but I offered $8k and walked away with it. I think I still might have overpaid for it though. I keep finding new surprises everytime I turn around. She claimed it was restored but I'm thinking it was more cleaned up and painted, very little filler in it though. It does have a lot going for it vintage air kit, new bushings in front end, new seat cover, new upholstery, 4 speed, V8, power discs in front, power steering, new shocks, new tires, new clutch, new intake/carb/radiator/alternator. Not a huge fan of the sunroof but it's growing on me.

Things I need to fix, there is something on one of the heater core lines that is draining the battery. I posted a picture, anyone know what this is? I also need to lower the rear end, the rake is crazy. I'm thinking 3 inches would do it but maybe more? Emergency brake needs fixing too. Little leaks here and there but solid driver. Needs a radio though.

What do you guys think?



This is running constantly and draining my battery



Little stuff like this here and there which is annoying but understandable. It's a driver not a show truck
