so yesterday i went down to Portland adn got some parts in trade for a carb that i had bought but didn't want to adapt into my truck. i got a valance panel, cowl panel, and a pair of hood hinges. and for a little bit of $$ i also scored a set of new wheels (cheapy Les Schwab wagon wheels painted black), a dash, and a new heater box. i am currently painting the dash since the cracks have been repaired. its going flat black as that way i wont have glare. i have already removed the old dash and i am painting the metal to match the dash pad. hopefully soon i can afford to put a tach in here as well so i know what kind of damage i am doing.
the list of parts i still need are.....
radiator (still)parking brake cablestemp switch for the 2nd set of points or an EI conversiondrop blocks (3 inch)heater hosestune up stuffsfuel line from filter to fuel pumprebuild kit for the hitachi carbnew tail lights (amber/red/clear), bumper/tail light housings, and front marker lights (clear\amber)and a bed front.
all in all its not a lot of work just time consuming.
