Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
SKYMANGS:
Re-aging process nearly complete! I ordered a new set of injectors for it today. Hopefully they will clean up the mid range power.

Everything costs more here in California. Apparently, even our phone numbers have an extra digit

Cecil's visor mocked up. Goes on permanently once my stainless button head bolts arrive.

Cecil's trailer hitch... like how you really can't see it? That was the idea!

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
Any close up's of how the hitch is mounted, is it an s10 hitch or fabbed up

It's the S10 hitch. To make up for cutting the frame. Where it was supposed to mount, I skinni ed it up and notched the mount plates around the rear shackles. Then welded some 3/16" plate tabs to the brackets to extend them back into the frame. Make sense?

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
sort of makes sense but haven't got this far yet and didn't know if I would have to start from scratch and my truck didn't have a hitch so I don't have anything to go by, but knowing it's possible makes me feel better about it

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
SKYMANGS:Started my day today by installing Cecil's newly arrived injectors. Only to find out that they leak like something fierce from the bottom. Needless to say I will be returning them. Heading to Bonner Springs in the AM to get the old injectors sonic cleaned and flow tested... starting to get a little old now.
UPDATE: Talked to Chris this morning the company that sold the Injectors to him called him this morning and told him that the injectors need to be seated on the rail in order to not leak. He is going to try this and hopefully this eliminates the leaking fuel, and the sluggish engine at mid range.

SKYMANGS:
Front bumper mocked up, brackets made and welded. Last pic is on it's own weight. I tucked it in nice and close, and raised it up over an inch from the stock location.

New door panels are a good fit! I added some '56 Chevy truck "V"s and the interior door poppers to break up that ocean of silver material

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
You can tell the build is wrapping up, SKYMANGS is posting glamour shots. I can't wait to take Cecil for a drive!
SKYMANGS: The new and improved "Cecil version 2.0" hope it's everything you thought it could be Shawn!!! So Far Chris it's better than I could have hoped for. Mom wish you could have seen it in person!

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI
Yup. The yellow one is my in progress Tow Pig... it's a 56 GMC 350 body on an 83 1 ton dually chassis. Should be ready in 2-3 weeks to start driving daily. This one is my version of a "junkyard" build. Budget for drivable is $500. Up till last week I was up $7.
![]() In Cecil news, the injector cleaning did the trick. Runs like a champ now! Shawn should be posting a run video shortly.
