Looks like i will be wiring and doing minor engine work (plugs and wires) on my truck in SEPT since the paint should be completed.
Goal: get it driving under her own power nlt 1 OCT. Anyone up for a wiring and helping me start it? I can set a date if anyone is free and wants to help.

She has asked the painter to get it done sooner as a birthday present!! woo hoo. I would love to test drive it before 1 OCT. Truck is actually in fredricksburg for painting and my buddy said that we could do the wiring in his garage so we could drive it out of there instead of using a trailer. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2012 Posts: 413 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2012 Posts: 413 | ndkid275, Bring it to ATHS Winchester event.

we pulled the engine prior to me starting it up with the carb. Once it is done painting, she will get fired up. I just have to do the wire harness and replace soem plugs/wires, etc

Just got back from seeing the truck. I was a little depressed since i understood he was farther than he actual was at this point. Truck was in pieces, primed but some metal work still needs to be completed on it. Engine was pulled, painted along with the transmission (pics posted at link below) By the way, if you look, color is obviously not original but i like it and that is all i care about! :-)
there is no way that i will be driving it before thanksgiving since i have a lot to do.
