Bobby; I took a page out of your book, no toilet parts but I did make my speedo bezel out of 4" PVC sewer pipe. I need to test instrument panel out then will install this fall.

Tom,

Woohooo!!! Isn't it amazing how many truck parts can be found at the local hardware store?

The whole guage package looks fantastic, nice job!

Bobby

 

I hope the speedo works, won't know for some time, but thanks.

I spent today re-assembling interior firewall components, installed the firewall liner I made. Hope to have brakes, by month end.

Tom,

I'm envious of all your progress. I havent had a chance to touch my truck in weeks. I was hoping to have my fuel injection installed by the end of summer but thats not going to happen. I haven't even had time to finish gathering all the needed parts. My weekends have been filled with household projects, family gatherings, and trips to the lake.

Here's to continued successes
Bobby

 

Very nice work Tom. I enjoyed looking at your gallery.

 

Bobby;

I hear you on the household work; I work away 10 days at a time so days off are busy. Besides finding time for the truck, my last two "weekends" were spent putting in 3 new windows, finishing the patio (actually sat out on it this weekend ) and painting the trim on the house. Mad some progress today, bit of bodywork on the grille, re-plumbed the brakes and finshed mounting the brake booster. Looking foreard to having the brakes "charged" so I can get the truck rolling, and hopefull stopped !
