1979 trip 01 - YouTube

motornut · 05-02-2013, 10:55 PM

drove out to the farm
pulled the batts from the other 79 to charge(selling the plow)
finally got around to removing the old useless bumper pull hitch n wires n tape
what you don't see?
soldered up the wires,one red for electric brakes? goes to the front junction on firewall
rolled back on to the hot iron,only to put my arm on it jumping

looks much better

Good looking Jimmy! I like that it gets used and drove still. I have never been a fan of soft tops but I like that one!

Thanks ,with the tan trim,a tan top seemed a good choice.
And it passed its first leak test!
Had a couple of good downpours last night.
