He also doesn't yet know this will be his first opportunity to work on and install these new parts on the truck himself...with a new set of tools (his first!); screwdrivers, wrenches, sockets, and a few other basic goodies, with a three-drawer box. He must think I'm mad at him or something, since we haven't done anything at all on his '46 since September! I'm not mad at all, just patient.

I have a bunch of little stuff to make it more confortable in the winter. Window felts and gaskets for the cowl and side vent. I guess 40 miles a day to work and back as well as 12 miles every other day to check the cows has taken its toll. I am also actively seeking a carrier to get the rpm's down a little bit.

I just got it home. I picked up a '89 C3500 Silverado with a 454 in super shape. 81000 miles, runs and drives great, needs paint.
It is a parts truck for the '47 ton dually panel.
Now I think I'll go start a new thread so I can brag a little.
