Nick...truck is looking good, while looking at your latest batch of pics I noticed the door hinges you are using. I can't recall ever seeing a cast door hinge, are these aftermarket?

Yeah, the stock pulley system is retained and they add a pulley to the crank to spin the AC and Power Steering pump. Also a second belt tensioner etc.

Thank you Charlie,
Yes the hinges are aftermarket from Ring Brothers and are Billet Aluminum. The screw holes are sort of elongated so there is some adjustment in them to help with getting the doors to fit.

This was right after I had it fired up and moved it to this spot under its own power with an auxiliary fuel tank, and using the hand brake to stop with. Since then, I’ve finished the fuel system (other than the choke cable..hard to operate), and installed a vintage cloth covered wiring harness. Rebuilt and painted the master cylinder and hardware, and getting ready to start on the brakes in earnest. Front passenger side is ready for the hard brake line. Hasn’t moved since this pic was taken..
