Another day at the shop.
I was alone at the shop almost all day. They locked up at 10am and I only had a couple tools and minimal hardware with me in the alley. Didnt get a TON done, but I got the air cleaner mounted (kinda). Its REALLY sturdy, no play, super strong. But I could only mount it by two bolts because the bracket doesnt conform to my truck very well. I dont want to re-weld and fab a bracket so I think Ill leave it for now.
I got the fuel filler neck back in, and the exhaust roughed out. I got a few bends tac welded, and should fab it up tomorrow.
I dont have a pipe bender, so Im pie cutting each bend, then bending it with a prybar. Not the best solution I know, but hey, it works.
Im going to mount the Vac chamber and power steering reservoir tomorrow, and connect all the heating elements.
I cant figure out how the damn gas pedal assembly works with the cable...... Gonna check an 80 out and see how it works.
Stay tuned. We're close!
