Any updates since the last one? That thing is starting to look amazing, everything I wish I could have done to that.
Looking back through the thread, those seats weren't my choice, the guy who snaked it from dad put those pieces of junk in, dad had the stock seats.
Glad to see it went to a...
It looks faded red, I'll have to find my old scans from when I was planning on a build thread. It used to be my dad's rig when I was young. It is a nice burnt-orange but the paint was so neglected that you just can't tell anymore. Apparently it was originally the factory cream color anyway...
Thanks again for buying, was a pleasure and would gladly do business with you in the future :cheers:
Did you make it home safe?
Also, to the comments about the various items:
Suspension and drivetrain were 100% stock minus a shackle lift my dad put on it sometime in the late 80's or early...
Thanks guys, it's ok, this particular cruiser held mostly sentimental value and I would have felt too compeled not to mod it. So my next rig (when I'm done with school and such) will be able to be modded how I want and be my own memories, the reason for having that one has long since passed.

Got most of the vacuum lines run yesterday although I've got one that needs a replacement VTV, one where I either need to replace the BVSV or route around it (for EGR) and two where I'm just not sure if/where they go. I will post pics as soon as I can since I'm not where I've got access to my...
Ok so I ordered 30 ft of silicone vacuum line using specs from this thread: https://forum.ih8mud.com/40-55-series-tech/33491-much-cheaper-oem-vacuum-hose.html and it is supposed to ship in the AM. Will post up when the re-line is finished.
Also I tested the wiper relay properly when I got to...
