I thought I'd show you all a few pics of my progress on the old truck. I've had it for a year and a half, and in that time, I've had a new baby, and restored a boat. Now I'm focusing all my efforts on this truck.

I pushed her outside of the garage today for the first time in over a year. Todays test was to get the engine running, up to temp, and check the clutch, column shift, rear end, driveshaft. I replaced all of it, rebuilt the tranny, and went through the engine. I had pretty good success, the pitfalls I found were a leaking freeze plug and some valve noise... Not bad for a 150 dollar engine.

Enjoy!

It's alway nice to get the grease and grime work done! Now comes the fun of making it purty! Like I've said before, fixing these old rigs is like eating an elephant, one bite at a time will get it done. Keep on trucking!
