My 66 Service Truck Build Thread

[LostMy65]

I went ahead and put new shoes, cylinders, springs, and seals on this 14-bolt as long as I was putting it in. It's all mounted and u-bolts torqued to 175.
I went ahead and put in new u-joints also.
Emergency brake cable is also all hooked up.
All I have left is the the brake lines, and then bleeding.
I will do that this weekend.

My wife is anxious for me to get this thing rolling so I can go get 3 tons of wood pellets for the winter - they're on sale at wilco.
Yeah, Sure... she says the truck is ugly, but still wants me to get it going to take care of things on her honey-do list.

I also hope to get out to see jimmydean next week to pick up his rear bumper.

I'm reading up on patch panels, and had a question;
If I get this:

Will I not need the inner rocker panel because it's already part of it?
