Looks great! That color could be my lubr’s twin[/QUOTE

I just looked at yours. Very nice work there. That does look like a twin. If I would have gone uncut it would look crazy similar. Color is Toyota Calvary Blue. I went Cement gray for the Line-X under coating.

Atlas cable shifters are installed.

Explorer throttle mod. to accept the stock cable. It worked well except I should have centered the hole a bit better. Had to file down the cowl opening a little to get the cable connected. The hole should have been cut about 1/2" higher in the throttle assembly. It still worked great. Other end is JSmall's (Jaromy's) bracket. Jaromy's bracket fit perfectly.

Hydro-boost install and bleeding brakes.

Ron Davis Radiator installed. Lower hose was a major pain. Had to go to the auto parts store a couple of times and search the back shelf for one that would work. Its really tight next to the 4x4X2 steering box.

Vintage Air install. Needed some butter. Was tight fitting everything in even with raised cowl.

Dang Rob! You're moving on this. It'll be done before I can get over there. Was hoping that work would shut down, but we're an "essential business" due to some of our contracts.

FWIW I've used Dave's Mobile A/C for A/C work in the past and been happy with his work.

Yep, making a bunch of progress due to Coronavirus. Not much money though. Oil and Gas is considered critical infrastructure but NO ONE is doing anything.

My intake design. Found a squared off box from a 2002 Explorer and cut the bottom and created a new flat bottom with materials from American Plastics.
