Maybe I could get Dawn to let me hire one as a nanny. I will be Painting my inner fender panels black. I think there's too much blue under the hood.

Gerry; If I knew I'd have it at home this long, I may have been able to spark her up. The only problem is $$$$. I need to change out my new injectors. (bought the the wrong pressure size) and buy a fuel pump. The wiring doesn't scare me. I'll buy the stuff I need to get it running, over the winter. She'll be running early summer for sure. (once baseball is over).

Hey Gil. It will be a year or two before it hit's the road. When I call about those fender support rod's, you'll know I'm close.

I'm hoping to have some parts of mine painted by then, mainly the cab and box, then might try starting mine once the cab is back on.

I was off this week, and Kalan kept me busy, but I did get started on the wiring. I also istalled my P/S hoses, and made some bracket's. I still have to make a heat shield on the bracket closest to the header. I spent a lot of time picking at the harness. it won't be a simple as I thought:

This is an awesome build Grant! With my complete lack of any automotive ability nothing here looks simple to me.
