I was given the seat's for free from a good friend. I was hesitant at first, but when I sat in them at his shop, I was totally surprised on how comfortable they are. I even hooked my battery charger to them and all function's work. I hear the Jeep seat's are a very close match.

Jordan want's to sand and pour 15 the interior. I now have to measure to make the seat mount's, I'll remove the seat's, instrument cluster, column base mount, tape up the column and brake pedal and let him have atter. Kalan say's the wood is good enough dad, just paint it, lol He want's to go for a ride so bad.

Jordo finally ground down the the rust in the cab and did the Por 15 thing. He had coverall's, gloves, glasses and a mask. Then he say's Dad: can you cover for mr for a 10 minute break, and I say's yes. He hands me a sloppy brush, which covered my right hand with that un-cleanabe stuff. Needless to say I will carry the fruit's of Jordan's venture's for at least 2 week's. lol
I wil update with picture's later. Hey "G" Kalan say's you haven't camped till you've camped at our place. HE TOLD ME: iF "G" doesn't work in the summer, he should come here, lol

Thank's Morris, Jordan's hard to read cause he's so quiet, but If I ask for his help, he's more than happy to get down and dirty. I will say that My 2 boy's have no fear in helping out and working around the house and yard

More awesome progress, looking great! Where did you get the rad from and what did it cost? I need for one for my modified 53 M100.
My grandson Jordan is so quiet and he`s hard to read too but he likes doing things with his hands rather than just sit around.

I bought the rad off E-bay from American Radiator $180.00 with a built in trans cooler. 2 core 3/4 in tubes good for over 350 hp easy My 5L will not be at the max of that range, I want reliabilty. fuel economy and a nice sound. Thanks.

We painted an clear coated the firewall and front windshield opening tonight. I'll post picture's tomorrow, it's too dark and I'd like to take pic's in the daylight. Hockey tryout's start on Thursday for high school and AA on Saturday. We decided the engine placement will happen in the spring. We decided the motor is better left in the car till we're ready to do the swap. That's fine by me, cause I have a lot more I can do till then. My winshield guy will come in the next week to install the front windshield and I know I can do a lot more thing's before the snow fly's. have a great evening guy's
