I took my old tires/wheels and my slots down to walmart and got the wheels swapped and balanced. $5 per wheel. Can't beat that.

DON'T point out the scary brake line routing, ;D preliminary to check for leaks. Which i did find. The two threaded holes that are not used need to have bolts and washers on the back side. My leak, which still happened after bolt and teflon were inserted, is where the pump and the reservoir meet only sealed by an o ring. First pump of the brakes and pfffffffttttt. and that was all she wrote. will have an update this evening ;)

Just kidding...looking good...I put a laundry list together last night after NOT being able to find my power steering pump off the '76 (I SWORE I saved it). I really shoulnd't have put that list together...Oh Man, I'm going to be busy until we leave for Gore. I'll be lucky to put a mile on her before she goes on the trailer...

He's still in MD!

I ended up putting the manual column back in (of course, AFTER I cut the connector off the harness to adapt it to the auto column) and feverously looked for my pump...If you don't need it, I'd like to stop lubricating the underside of my truck with PS fluid!!! Bring it tomorrow along with the tie rod and let me know how much I owe you!!

I just placed an order with Summit for 2 battery hold down straps, electrical connectors and an inexpensive B&M Z-Gate shifter...I really can't wait to drive this pig, getting tired of it just sitting there...

Hey Steve you got to stop working on the turd, and keep a eye on the internet, so you don't miss out of great stuff.

I know your going to hate this picture

Finally bought some bulbs for the socket I found under the dash when I pulled the old radio out. Turned the light switch on, blew the fuse, couldn't believe it, so I did it one more time. Drove it to O'Reilly's and bought some more fuses. Guess I've got a short to run down. Maybe that's why the po didn't have a bulb in the socket to start with.
