Re: Parked Indefinite

As much as I like to sip on a stiff drink and just stare at the truck, thinking about what I want to do to it, the commissar of the shop doesn't seem to have similar interests. In light of that, I've just been focusing on trying to get this thing to a drivable state again and I'll just pick away at the details later on. Anyways, I tried to make a solo attempt at bleeding the brakes which resulted in some pedal, but I'll have to make another attempt I guess. To save a little time I decided to shelf my camaro console plan so I just hooked up the column shift linkage again. Engine-wise, it's all wired up and basically ready to start. Here's some pics:

I made up this plywood backed, aluminum skinned piece to mount the msd, wideband etc. in the passenger side footwell area.



MSD mounted and wired:


Column shift:


Coming together:
