progress on the 74'

I've done a bit of work on the ol 74' but I still have to get the cab on the frame.

-2bbl intake
-took the cab off to put on the other frame
-put the rear end on the other truck
-got the old 390 running (extremely smooth)
-changed shock mounts
-cut off various rust to put new metal in

It all takes time, we spent most of today just replacing an axle seal in the
model T Jag rear end. After that it was pulling the valve covers off the 7.3...No dropped valves so now we have to pull the oil pan off, keep digging.
