Ordered my new VIN plate from Marti Works on Feb 22 and it showed up April 16th

Also put in all new indicator LED lights except for the tail lights.
Which LEDs did you pick up? Looks good
Well, at least my top is anyway.
No Hay is really starting to enjoy the climate down here.
Saw you driving it Saturday afternoon with the top still on. Looks good!

Don't get used to this weather, its gonna be hot in a month!

doing an oil and filter service and finally the oil pan stripped out ,the last change I thought it was kind of iffy , I had a over sized drain plug so not a big deal , back up and going. Also my SS long tube headers came in so after NORRA I am all set to install a complete new system replacing the original system the 1st owner installed back in the 60's ,you think it would of lasted a lot longer than 48 yrs ;);)

ordered a Marti report. removed the old tailgate. guess what my gas tank that I moved up that started this whole debacle was in the way%)
old gate was two welded together, they must have only replaced the top half, the bottom half is very very rusty lol. that's what bed liner will cover up;)

I don't think I would want to try and tackle all the stuff in the doors, big props to her:cool:

Hey Skiddy, - when I did the disc brake conversion, she watched me do the driver's side, then did the passenger side herself! She's a beast!

But she's also a ballet dancer and teacher. And no, I don't participate in her activities! ;D

I got the set from Toms, since they're closest and shipping is cheaper. Plus it gets here in a day or 2 at the most. Look great, but I haven't put the rear ones in yet. That will be the real tell.

Replaced a rear d/s end u joint (nothing like spare slip yokes on hand) and contemplated how to get these to parts to work together...

The large older Duff cover just does not have enough pinion protection and the BTF cover has plenty, but no underbelly protection. Cut weld into one time.
