Hey Woody, I had to do something to catch up to you, Alvin and my buddy Pete. Mine old gal is still six months away.
Well Chip, I was gonna have it done this week but I lost my list this evening. Rather Jim Carters web page lost my list. I spent at least a couple of hours on their site after supper and had a BIG old list of items, enough to make the UPS guy complain, then I got called into the house by my daughter. I went back out to the confuser about a half hour later and the cart was empty. They must have a timer on their cart page and it timed out. I'm to tired to start it all over again and I really had a head of steam up and was ready to spend next months allowance on the new one. Tomorrow I probably won't be so generous with my coin.
I had a chance today to give it a real good going over and I did find one and only one bad spot on the whole body. I'm gonna have to replace the bottom of the driver side cab corner. The passenger side is solid as a rock as is all the rest of the sheet metal. The drain must have been plugged on the driver side. I spent the day adjusting and lubricating the cab, i.e., doors, door latches, glove box, key locks, seat adjusters, fuel gauge connections, electrical grounds and making a list of what I need to make it pretty enough for my "big old wife" to ride in it. I weren't happy with the way the seat adjusters were working so I decided to pull them out and I have them soaking in the gunk tank. This is about when the "mission creep" started to set in! So while I'm at it, I figured I'd do the full clean up of the cab. Gonna order some paint, (bet it's not gonna be the right shade), new upholstery, floor mats, head liner, door panels, arm rests, sun visors, all that rubber and felt stuff, shocks, and on, and on!
Night all!
