Bob: I think I will switch out the wiper switch with the one from my parts truck. Thye parts truck appears to have a 2 speed wiper motor as well as a stock w/s washer. There is a little button inside the the main knob. The one currently on my truck works fine. More to follow.

Working instrument Cluster?

Unknown cluster condition since the battery is long-dead. I'll hook up a good battery tomorrow and turn the key to see if I have any lights, horn, ignition, spark, etc. There is no fuel line connected to the carb so I may pour a little gas down the throat and cross my fingers. I do know that the little red and green idiot light lenses are gone. Only a speedo, fuel and temp gauges. No clock or tach.

Clyde: When I mentioned the "solid metal bed" I should have said that the original wood bed has been replaced by a sheet of metal. The bed is in no way "solid". There are probably some good cross rails. The tail gate is crap. The front bed panel has been pushed up against the cab. No trim on the bedsides. Hopefully I can post some more images tomorrow afternoon.
