Re: New to me Jimmy

Nice truck

JMHO, but I would change those worm drive clamps on the fuel filter to witek spring clamp

Rubber fuel lines deteriate over time, shrink spit

Nice jimmy. Do the wheels have 3 nubs for the hubcaps? Or 4? Look like 3 in the pics.

Re: New to me Jimmy

Nice choice of caps, I wanted to use those but didn't fit my rally wheels with 3 nubs, ended up using derby caps

Put them in my lathe and cut out center, Cheap Chinese plastic so it didn't bother me

Thanks for not taking offense, not trying to nit pick, just that I've outlived a lot of rubber fuel hose

These are the witek clamps I use
