Looks great Joe! Looks like you are moving right along instead of taking the 2 year plan like I did..lol...

And how did it go to Destiny from Big Sexy?

thanks for stopping in

technically I'm not from here....I just live here now, so i guess that makes me an Okie

your 2 year plan turned out super nice!!

this won't even be close

I call it "Destiny" because I have wanted a square crew forever...it is my destiny

the wife came up with big sexy.......and I couldn't argue

We'll agree to disagree.

No just kidding I don't have a problem with Texas, just the University of Texas.

joe231 · 04-01-2010, 08:29 AM

Sorry to disappoint ya Scott.

I hope to spend some time on it this weekend. The weather is supposed to be decent.
Working out of town while we were having that great weather sucked. If I feel froggy tonight I might get something done

DaddyMack · 04-01-2010, 11:41 AM

the only thing i fixed last night was the dash. The PO hacked out the dash and riveted in a piece from an older truck to put the wipers on the dash.

it was sitting at a custom metal place, so I guess he made the grill himself.

menace121978 · 04-02-2010, 07:45 AM

you can have it buddy... just let me box it up and you pay shipping. i'll get a picture of it as soon as i get home today so you can say yea or nay. i never used it. the guy i got it from went w/ a custom setup on a rock crawler. he said it works.

Sweet!
Thanks man!

joe231 · 04-02-2010, 11:18 PM

Worked on the firewall a bit tonight....

Cut out the spare firewall.

Cut out the crew firewall.

Test fit.

View from the inside.

Got a couple little spots to fill in by the heater core holes.
That's as far as I got tonight, I still need to do some clean up before I weld it up. I chose to lap weld it, I figured a butt weld would be a pain in the butt

Hopefully I'll get it welded tomorrow and then I will be able to start putting the truck back together.....

*highperf4x4* · 04-03-2010, 03:59 AM

Looks good to me. Why do you suppose they hacked it in the first place?

**scotts62** · 04-03-2010, 10:07 AM

Sweet! So after you fix the fire wall you can start running the new harness?

thanks,
it was a non A/C cab that they added A/C to. It would have been fine as it was, and no one would have seen it....but I would have known and it would have bugged me.

yep, hopefully I'll have the new harness in today. I need to go pick up an intake gasket and water pump gaskets so I can get the TBI and serp set up on.
