I did it! well actually, those of you who helped did it. I got my truck, '61 short/fleet, all buttoned up today, the tailights are completely functional again THANK GOD!! i stripped out about 30 feet of completely useless non-origional wiring. My dash lights work now, my heater works now, and the list goes on. I put in my new wiper transmission arms from "American Classic," they are just like the old ones and work perfect! I put in the LMC reproduction turn signal mechanism, the quality is fantastic and it works so nice i can't beleive it. My old truck is so happy. cleaned the carb, all kinds of stuff. THANK YOU STOVEBOLT.COM, I AM SO HAPPY TO BE DRIVING MY TRUCK AGAIN!!! i will post some pictures later this week, if i can figure out how. thanks again.

glad to hear it FK. i had to go through my wiring also to get the same things working when i first got it.
i've started using AC now almost exclusively for my parts needs. they don't disappoint me like others have. good people.
