UP & RUNNING

And by the way, folks...I drove the truck around all weekend. The brakes in front work pretty good now, though the right rear is still out of commission. At least I can stop now!

Drove it to a clutch shop on my way to work this morning, to get an expert opinion & estimate on the troubles under there.

I'll let you know what they find out...

'Til then,

The best part of a truck project is when it can actually be driven a little while being worked on! Good Luck with it!

congratulations. You have just experienced some of the best feelings known to a truck guy. Makes some of the busted knuckles worth it, doesn't it? One small step for restoration, one giant step for ego. LOL. Keep up the good work!
