Rambler rear end back on 2 wheels after a long spell. I have to adjust the coil overs and mount points but it’s done enough for now.

I pulled the c10 cab out of the snowbank and lowered it back onto the frame. It was a little difficult maneuvering the cab down as my gantry crane was frozen down to the pad. But I did get it down and squarish. The fuel lines clear the firewall just fine. Whew. I haven’t touched the harness for the engine in a while (I’ve been reading), so I began to build a bracket to hold the LS ECM. I think mounting it behind the LH headlight would be a good spot. I want to go to the farm and take pictures of my parts truck, puzzle box kid, 72 Chev to see if there are any things I can’t think of that might interfere with its mounting in this location.
If it’s good here and clears the headlight bucket from the rear, I hope to build a little side bracket for relays and such off the LH side. It will be visible, but won’t be conspicuous like it would be if it was mounted on the inner fender.


Here’s the plan...
