...and I didn't even know he was there until I checked to see if he put the batteries in it. So, I'm assuming they make it MUCH easier to start?

I think it only took that long because it hadn't been started in a bit. I was impressed with the steering in your parking lot. Was real nice.

here are a few pics of my feeble attempt to repair my old radiator support.. not the quality of what alan would do but i think it will hold the front of the sheet metal in place..... it was alot harder than it looks, the spot welds on the 74 support didnt want to let me have the parts i needed...but i beat them into submission..ha ha ha ha

Good deal Alan, and Jeff! The truck sounds pretty good. A diesel conversion was one of the thoughts that ran through my head after I put those 5" stacks in the bed. But just a thought.

How's everybody doing today?

Unk Bob
