Beautiful lights!!!

It's been busy around here. What a pain the ebrake was today. Cleaned up some of the Vintage Air wiring and temporarily "fitted" the steering wheel and glove box door.

Day off the truck tomorrow for honey-doos. I'll see what happens Wed.

Inside the truck looks nice man! I like that wheel. Where did it come from?

I just looked at my Paypal stuff from way back and can't find the E-Slay transaction. The wheel was made in Italy for marine use. I used a Grant adapter and had to screw around to get the horn set up correctly. But real leather and wood. And nicely made. I think it was worth the effort.

I know the mfg. started with an "M". And the guys that were selling it were a marine outfitter from Tennessee or Kentucky, if I remember correctly. But, the older I get, the more my mind's like a colander.

Here's the wheel without all the wires around it.

Well got my inner/outer rockers/cab corners and new doors done and painted to match interior, seat back in again too. Also most of bodywork on front of truck, primed and painted semi black for now, getting closer to back on the street, just waiting for the new rims and tires still, a few more weeks for sure, lots of time for more bodywork.
