Oh, and yesterday I got new tires on the back, and put new brakes on the front, so now I can drive without fear of a blowout and stop straight. And now I have 4 matching Uniroyal Liberator A/Ts. Still didn't help in the mud.

Topped up gearbox and t-case oil, planned my lift, and decided against fitting side steps in favour of dating taller women.

Drove it. That's about it. Need to get things fixed on the Sploder so I can throw money into the 250.

Bought a used windshield a few days aog from a 70 off of ebay for $25 & 44 shipping in good shape no damage to it. Said it should be in bout 11-14 business days. Just found out the windshield got broke cause some other people were not watching what they were doing. So I am looking for another one. Other than that doing a deal on a 66 Mustang convertible which I will make a daily driver an use the truck on the weekends once the car is done.

Tore the dash out to clean up the wiring and build a new custom gauge cluster. The cluster should be done by this Friday so I can install it this weekend.



4-6 update. Cleaned up that spaghetti mess of wires under the dash. Looks much better now. Still some work to do.
