Got a little more done today. I was able to get the old bed off and look the frame over. There are a couple more small holes that I hope can be repaired. There's a lot of extra stuff on the frame but I ran out of cutting wheels. I honestly thought I'd be able to drive it today, but no such luck. I bought a boat fuel tank to use as I thought it would be easy to hook up and I end up with enough junk around here that it will probably be useful in the future. While hooking up fuel lines I found that the lines wouldn't thread into the fuel pump. It seems that there was an electric pump on this truck in the past. A new pump from the parts house was like $65 and I was going to have to fix the lines. So I'm going to snag an electric pump off ebay for $20. I don't have a key, so I need a new ignition switch. Since I have the foot starter, I'm just going to just run a hot wire to a toggle switch for the coil and fuel pump. There is a rat nest of wires under the hood for who knows what so that will be a little bit of a pain to figure out, but I'll get it.
