It's ALIVE!

Recently I finally bit the bullet and ordered the steering column and the Master Cyl/Booster. Now after Fab'ing the Front Drive Line and finishing up some of the wiring I found myself wanting to get 5+ years of dust off some of the stuff.

I figured ehh.. It should run now...... After fighting with making my own brake lines two weekends in a row. Here is where I got.

YouTube - 71 Longhorn Finally Moves!

It felt pretty good. I booked the appointment for paint. Tentatively its going in the week of 4th of July. Tomorrow I am ordering the Dash Panel, Gauges, and Matching glove box from No Limit tomorrow.





Next, after paint. Comes the wheels. I am planning on running a 38" tire.
So far for wheels I think this is my choice in a 22X12.



The only thing I have not decided on was what bumpers to run. I have a brand new chrome warn classic I was planning on installing. Since I bought that I been leaning toward the off road tech front bumper (tube pre-runner style).

Thought I would take a minute to share since I was not a member back in 01 when I started with the front 1/3rd of a 4x4 donor frame and the back 2/3rds of a longhorn frame. Getting to this point is quite a feat! After 6.5 years to finally see it start and move is unbelievable for me.

Thanks for looking. Have a great day.
