Alan,

The 240-33 is the late model sender (they work in reverse compared to ours)

Our trucks used the 0-30 ohm sender so I assume the 59 did too.

After ours they went to 0-90.

Thanks for the pic and link. Their's are cheaper than Dave Boyd.

Got the back glass finished up today. It's nice when you have the right tools. The lacing tool is borrowed from a guy at work. I had the locking strip in in less than 10 minutes.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10

Looking really good Alan. So you going to be driving it soon? Got to be close isn’t it? I am getting close to having the shop ready for projects then as soon as the motor is back in my S-10 I will pull the cab off the 64 and get her down for blasting . So I can start on the floor pans and rocker panels. Looks as if I am getting started as you are finishing up.

Thanks, and I hope to drive it this summer. A couple hangups are I have to build a play house for the girls and vacation. Maybe you can get it done faster than I did.

I'm sort of slow at times (mentally) I cleaned the sitting tape out of the track for my passenger side window with a screw driver and a hammer. Thinking there has to be an easier way. Well today I discovered it on the drivers side. That stone fit perfectly. Took my time and still done in a minute.

Appreciate that!!

Didn't get the bed done, but did put the textured coating on it. The main reason is to keep rocks for starring the paint on the wheel tubs and too cover up some hammer marks and other defects. Meow Meow. The can requires a special gun and tip that is pretty inexpensive. I don't know the cost my paint rep donated it. He gave me one can and it barely got it covered once. I would have liked another coat on the tubs.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10

Last few. I brought home the gas door to compare colors to make sure it matches. It's the same paint, but I couldn't remember which tint of sealer I used.

Now I'm going to sand with 800 and clear it. Still have some more parts to paint some color on for the bed, but the majority of it is done.

Very nice! So the clear over single stage gives it a deeper look?

X4 Thanks guys.

I rolled it outside to washed it inside and out and to check the color match. It looks like it will be fine. But the glove box door doesn't match the dash. I think it is because I used a Sikkens Hugger orange base I had left over from another job. I wasn't worried about it matching the outside because they were not side by side.
