You need two tools in life: duct tape and WD-40. If it moves and it shouldn't, you use duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, you use WD-40.

Re: 63 Short Fleet Build

Hey AviatOr,

Your truck is friggin excellent! I've seen pics of it and liked the color combo but after following the build I like it even more. .

It's nice to see the extra effort put in to make things right! Your craftsmanship is great! Keep posting the pics!!!

John

Got a little pin striping done at the greybeards carshow today... No the trucks not driving, my painter wanted it at his booth so we trailered it in.

Re: 63 Short Fleet Build

I got those hinges long enough ago that I don't have any info on them but if you google "suicide door hinges", several sites offer that style. You might check some of the local board vendors here too. I'm sure some of them offer them.

For the other questions, I don't have any stunning progress as of late. I have just been steadily acquiring all of the finishing pieces I need. Got my engine computer and harness from Fuel injection connection, I have a Isis wiring system on it's way and have been working on all of the plumbing. I'll post up some more soon I hope.
