Re: '65 SWB Patina Build

Well I spent the afternoon buttoning up some suspension stuff.

Then I pulled out the original cluster and started thinning out the brand new Painless chassis harness, it's ready for the Dakota Digital.

Then I finally got my compressors hooked up and went to test them, and one of them is bad out of the box. I really wanted to do an engine driven compressor for the reliability and performance, but I just couldn't fit it in the engine bay. Hopefully I have better luck with the replacement compressor, but so far i'm not convinced these electric compressors are reliable.

I really like this truck! Nice to see you're back at it. Sounds good in the video too.

TBSS longtubes fit perfectly. The ONLY trimming I had to do was cut the ears on the 4l80.
