Yesterday was a monumental day in the history of this project.
I resolved my clutch release problem and the truck drove up and down the driveway under its own power for the first time. This was the first time I have ever had the truck move under its own power as the "rust bucket" as my wife calls it never was run/driven with the previous drivetrain.
It is a strange looking beast with only the cab, drivetrain (including radiatory support), and bumpers in place but it does move under its own power.
Now to get the brakes working (pedal near the floor) - a good winter project and the sheet metal work and related painting completed so that I can make it look more like a truck.
