X2!! Those bed signs are the next best "find" you've had....next to the truck itself, that is. Talk about making it your own! Those things are awesome. You guys are going to have the coolest parts truck in the whole.....well, ever!

Congrats on the uber-successful trip. Sounds like a great time.

Thanks guys, I'm really glad I found the bed signs too. It's like bringing back some of my own family history, kind of neat. My grandfather was a Chevy dealer too so we are going on 3 generations now as long as Dad sells me the place eventually! I hope one of my kids will want to work for me some day. My dad saved a lot of old signs and stuff from back in the day so it will be fun going through our warehouse and finding some other cool stuff. I did find a stack of rubber mud flaps that I thought we were completely out of so those will be going on the back as soon as I have time to mount them. They aren't nearly as wide as the flaps that are on the truck now but they say Thielen Motors on them so they are going on it. I'm still trying to figure out why the truck isn't running right. I put new plugs in it last night and that didn't help. I hooked it up to our SUN engine scope and did a cylinder short test and number 6 and number 2 didn't respond when the scope put a load on them. HMM....I swapped wires around and did it again with the same results so I don't know what's going on. I'll do a compression check this afternoon if I have time.
