Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Thanks Alan, for posting the trim and paint process pics they should help me along when I do that part. I have to drill the cab/door and fender holes on mine as well as painting the stripe. Did you make any hole templates by any chance????...lol

Got the over flow bottle intalled. Thanks Mark for the suggestion. Removed the cowl seal and no change in hood. The left hinge seams to be worn out. I'm guessing. The right side of the hood will come all the way down Also installed the thin trim and the replacement wide trim came today. Thanks Mar-K Also got a Fiamm horn installed and working.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Thanks Scott!! Now if I can get it to run as good as it looks. I tried to break the tires loose and it wouldn't do it. I wasn't really agressive with it since all my trim is laying in the bed.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Hey Alan,
You are my hero and I want you to adopt me so I can inherit your truck. I hate to be a DUMBASS (that's what my mother affectionately called me), but I can't see any plumbing to the A/C pump. You have more than impressed me with your innovative technology as you always do such trick stuff, so who knows.??? I paged back thru the NOVEL but couldn't find it, so what did I miss....? DUH Blinded by the brilliance, lost in my own fog. aka: Danny

All the trim is in place. I just need to remove the door trim panels to install a few nuts. I also got the lights in the hood wired, just need to clean it up some. I didn't do the sliding door contacts for several reasons. I'll get some pics of the wiring when i finish it.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Ronnie,
He's already got experience on the 60-66 body style, now he needs to practice on a 67-72, preferably a '69. Keep up the good work Alan.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
I've seen it too many times, bodymen with their own projects sitting in the corner. I vowed to myself that that wouldn't happen.

This thread should be in the FAQ section titled How to completely rebuild an entire 60-66 truck and do it right. Nice job Alan.
