Nice work too bad the truck looked nice untill you dug into it but I guess thats just how it goes with these old trucks..

flipped the bed over, and i knew the bedsides needed work, but they are beyond what i want to fix... so im just going to find some better bed sides..i also installed a fan shroud....not to much done, but im still chipping away at it.

I dig the intake cover

[mcbassin]

Alright, glad to see some progress on this bad boy. Too bad about the bed. They're pretty hard to come by around these parts ya know.

Looking good,you're making some head way on your project.Keep the pictures coming & keep on truckin'

[68 short step]

let me give everyone a up date
i finished running my wiring for the air management, adding a bulkhead so the wiring will be a quick disconnect with the wires that go in the cab.... i also made every wire black, thus adding to the frustration of trouble shooting should this truck get stollen too..then i tore it back down, and took to get powder coated



.

[68 short step]

while at the powdering coating shop, i took this opertunity to mount the computer on the firewall, behind the intake...then i cleaned the underside of the cab, and bedinered it

[68 short step]

then it was time to go pick everything up from the PC shop.

[67cheby]
