What model?

944?

 

I started on installing my door rubber. I got the passenger side window rubbers in. Material came from Precision Restoration. So far everything is fitting very good and quality seems to be decent. The cab side molding is not exactly like the OEM Ford. It does not have the little flat / wide strip that goes under the aluminum threshold but I don't think that will be a problem. I did a test fit (without glue) and its a little long and will need to be trimmed but that looks good to.

I was hoping to have the whole thing done tonight because its suppose to drop into the 40's very soon but I'm slow... haha

Working on the Dent is good therapy and a nice stress reliever.

 

Yanked my old 9inch diff for a newer one that matches my front gears so i can use the 4wheel drive ( mission accomplished) tuned my carb and advanced my timing to 12 btdc so now she purrs with some grunt and is ready to plow through the snow. That fluffy white stuff dont slow me down

 

Finally washed off the dirt from sitting. Getting back on it now that I have room to work on it again at the new house. Got my new carb yesterday, now time to pull the engine and swap freeze plugs seals and gaskets and send the valve covers and air cleaner in to be powder coated

 

Flushed my heater core and replaced heater hoses and clamps . Better heat now .

 

the guy has a 82 Porsche 924 2.0 non turbo 5 speed manual power everything black leather interior wanting to trade for the 74 F250 crew I have.

 

I hope you know how much it costs to repair those . If not , research before you trade . Price a flywheel and clutch . Water pump r&r .

 

wont be to bad & truck was not being used anyway just sitting in the driveway on the back burner for last 2 years.

 

Sounds like what I need to do.

 

delivered 3 rick of wood today with a busted windshield (was worried about every cop in the county seeing it) and then when i was about half unloaded my wife called and said she was headed to the hospital to get checked out since the baby hasn't been moving much for a couple days after about 2 hours in the hospital they released us to go home they said its not good but he seems fine in there just not as active as he should be have to go see th dr again on monday... it will be the 3rd time in a week.... i hope my boy is ok

 

Smokenchoken - Keep the faith brother, I'm sure mom and baby boy are alright. Some times us boys are just a little lazy.

 

Just an update ...... it's now Dec 6th , and I've driven her home several nights now .... same charging system, but the new Sylvania XtraVision sealed beams with real reflectors look like they are gonna set the roadside brush on fire compared the ones I had in it. Funny how "used to a vehicle" you can become over many years and just accept that lights are dimmer .... when they really don't need to be.

 

I chiseled a solid layer off ice off my doors and the whole hood so I could hook up the battery and start it lol once I get some de icer later and clean off the windows it's gonna be game on in the field with 6" of snow and counting

 

keep your chin up smokenchoken! Prayers for you and yours .

 

Installed the harness for the temp and oil pressure gauge. Drove her around town with the new to me 300ci.
