Throttle linkage complete

Think I'm on the home stretch! Still have to finish wiring the air ride, door poppers / windows and a/c. Hoping that will be done by the end of Feb.

Minor set back when the owner of the shop started up his golf cart and ran in to the newly painted cab. The cab was off the frame and it pushed up against the wall. Small dent on the firewall and 2 good deep dings in the rear just below the window. He's a good buddy and we will get it fixed.

Re: Throttle linkage complete

it works, nice color on the truck. Hopefully it was low enough on the cab so the bed will cover the repair??

Nah its above the box so it needs to be worked. At least it's in the back as the original paint was oil based and not water. They will have to color match with a camera I'm told.

Sweet, great job getting it running. I remember when I got mine to that stage. I drove it to work and back for 2 weeks with no front clip!

Re: Throttle linkage complete

You know how many times I've thought of doing the same burn out thing while I'm looking at my truck having an beer? will do the same thing some day. Where abouts are you? I'm down the Kingston way.
