i like what i see of your truck so far and would like to see more. my truck is in a little better shape than what yours is HOWEVER i'm not going to the same extremes as you are. My truck may not ever get repainted but it will get new floorboards and cab mounts, front & rear springs, shocks all the way around, new original style seat cover (from *** unless i hear anything bad about them), new dash pad, carpet and window trim (i hate the rattley windows and doors) and one new arm rest. of course i probably will never be happy with it and keep pecking away with it until it's completely done. i also have a mustang with 187k miles that will need to be pulled, stroked and bored before next spring....considering $$ allows. I've got some pics of mine that i'll email you if you like but i'm not sure how to get them to you otherwise.
, I just remembered a little detail on my first p/s swap I did on my 72 with the 300-6. I had used a new style pump because I could order the brackets from ford at the time. It all worked fine except the pullys didn't line up quite right. All I had to do to remedy this was pull the pulley out about 1/4 inch on the shaft. !5 years later and no problems. Also at that time I was able to order the steering shaft from Ford and just changed it because I wanted to retain my original color column.
