I ordered the same drop spindle from CPP this week. They're about a week behind after moving. Hoping to have them for next weekend. Looks awesome. How did they ? Any issues I should be aware of? Thanks.

I actually have managed to get a lot done this winter----which only leaves about 9 years and three weeks of work left!!!

The latest (and last TO DO) to the cab before primer is the recessed antenna.

Removed the inside tank, used the purchased filler plate, then cut it out to use 2 1/4 heavy wall exhaust pipe. Will use a power antenna sitting about 2" down. Installed a drain in the bottom and will run that out the bottom of cab.

More patchwork on the outer fenders. Still have the tailgate to go before I'm at a stand still till I get my cab and bed. Trying to get the small panels out of the way so I can focus on the pile o rust cab

The cab and most all of the truck is in the booth ready to be sprayed. I'll put some more up next week.

After figuring out the new starter I put on 2 weeks ago blew all its teeth into the inspection. pan I installed another today. I also found a blown fuse and I now have.tail-brake lights. I also insured it and took the little woman to town to fill the tank for the fisrt time since I've owned it. Tomorrow I get to drive her to work. I'm so excited. There is a guy down the street with a 71-72 surburban that I meet today at the gas station. I know I haven't gotten a lot done, but I'm happy. Next is to get a fresh tune and adjust the tranny.

The install went without a hitch. All the stock parts fit perfectly. Highly recommend them.

Today I got most of the bottom end of the new power plant assembled, If I could get my other computer to hook up to our internet I would show you guys some updated pics of the engine build progress and some of the internals.

Nice job on the trans lines. Aren't those little starters the best!

I think that condenser you are asking about is for radio noise suppression. There may be an additional one on the back of the alternator. I'm not sure what the specifications are for the condenser but if you don't have one I don't believe it will effect the operation of your charging system. You may get interference (static) when listening to the radio.

Because you are in France it must be difficult to get parts when you need them. Can you order from Napa Auto Parts on-line or Rock Auto or a similar on-line auto parts store (not just LMC)?

We installed the new gm crate motor today and fired it up. Gonna put the new skyjacker 4 inch springs on next weekend.

Took the cover off and cruised the plaza in 50 degree temps! Spring isn't that far away!

[Bishops Trucks]

The guy I sold my Camaro to finally picked it up so I was able to come-a-long my truck into the garage. Now it's time to start working on it and hopefully get it going by mid summer.
