Hey Heath. Long time no see. Where have you been hiding?

There's a few for sale around the way. I'm sure we could fit you in somewhere.

I love your truck. I have been trying to talk a neighbor into selling his '70 Chevy 1/2 4X4 longbed, but no luck so far. (His wife doesn't want to sell it). Have you had anymore progress on your truck yet?

sdailey · 12-29-2011, 10:22 AM

Sorry, no new progress to report at this time. My wife has been out of work for the past year so the truck got put on hold. It's just sitting in the basement collecting dust. Luckily, she found a job about a month ago, so maybe 2012 will be a good year.

Thanks for checking in.

Alan's Classic · 12-29-2011, 07:48 PM

Maybe I can abuse you some and get your blood flowing again. I do need some help with the seats. I'll call ya.

Wow am I tired, I just looked at your build, very nice, like the name and the build. Will be watching for more now, especially since i have a 71 4x4.

Nothing major to report. Got the motor and tranny filled with oil. I still need to buy some more gear oil so I can fill the transfer case and differentials.

I'm trying to get the drivetrain buttoned up finally, but I keep hitting minor stumbling blocks every way I turn. In trying to get the flex line at the fuel pump installed I had one of the AN fittings ring off for no apparent reason.

What it should look like.

Also, I've been going round and round and round with Inline Tube trying to get my brake lines figured out. I think I've got more of their inventory than they have now. Talking about poor customer service and crappy attitudes, but I'll save that for the review forum one day.

Here's a shot of some of the "extra" lines that they sent me just trying to get the rear axle lines correct. What a joke!

All of these lines went in the scrap pile.

I picked up a new repop comfort grip steering recently and that about sums up the recent progress.

Thanks for checking in.

Alan's Classic · 02-21-2012, 11:22 PM

No matter how you look at it "progress is progress". I take it the second fitting worked.
