Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Everything on your build is worth a picture. Keep up the incredible work - you are an inspiration to all of us weekend wrenchers who only dream of having the ambition and ability to do what you have. Thanks.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Original tanks are vented directly in a few spots. Including a vent line on the filler tube. Cap is not vented. New stuff is different though and you can get check engine lights if the gas cap is left off.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

I needed to fuse my air ride system and was going to use a crummy inline fuse until I started poking around in my new fuse box and found an open slot for a 30 amp Maxi fuse. I went to an audio supplier and got the correct slot connector and tied it all in through the back of the fuse box. A ground to the body and air ride is ready to go!

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

That looks great! Definitely the right choice painting it to match the rad support

I think it is extremely close, but ok. If not I'll have to get a smaller reservoir.

Thanks to all for the congrats, I've been chasing down weak grounds since I posted the video and think I'm good now. Time to start bleeding the brakes.
