Today: addressed the warped hosebed wood(removed it, resealed it, reinstalled it), took a few motor pictures with the hood up(it is overheating) and added the rope lanyard to the wood ladder hanging on the side of the truck.
Still have a few bugs to be worked out: It over heats, altenator doesn't seem to charge the battery and I'm going to try to set timing and mess with the flapper in the exhaust system as I think it is not installed correctly. Always something...
Anyway, I search the Stovebolt archives each night hunting for my truck issues and looking for the best answers. Thanks again!
