When I changed the oil, I was surprised that the filter cartridge seemed so dirty. Maybe it was my imagination but it seemed thicker than I recall.
I have been driving the truck as much as possible and I am still amazed at the looks and stares. Some people look at me like its an UFO. Nearly everywhere I go I get into some conversation with someone.
The truck is running so good of late but I still suffer when the engine is hot, go into a place for a short time and then want to refire the engine. It is much harder to start and at times I worry I will run the battery down. Remember, it is still a six volt system.
I kept this truck as original as possible and never like to see these swaps. I want it all original.
I do think it is funny when someone says or asks when am I going to restore it. The looks I get when I tell them that it is done is priceless. I guess everyone thinks it's done once you have a pretty paint job or something. Not going to happen under my watch.
