    Joseph and I were talking the other day. Said he had a leak and the truck has a pretty severe lean to the passenger side. I picked it up after lunch. Beauty. I did a full once over. Adjust the belts. The throttle cable. Dusted it off. All systems go under here. Cowboy said she was happy the...

    It will handle a 37 but you won’t be opening the driver 1/2 door. It’s close with a 33 For visibility behind the driver would be best

    Recently via Toyota. Maybe there is an alternative part number now.

    The finished product is beautiful. The 40 has been on the rack for the Wizard so I can’t install yet.

    @Birdhead sold JJ a beautifully restored steering wheel. I grabbed the horn button and it’s on the way back to him for restoration as well

    That’s a wrap. Tucked away nice and tidy. I love the 18 gallon tanks ….

    I’ve been putting split cases into 40s since I first built Project Patina This is the first one I’ve hung off the rear bellhousing mounts. I’ve had transmission hump clearance issues since I got it going. Just a bit too tight. This is why I like the 60/custom crossmember. I can drop the...

    I think people don’t quite understand what it costs to do a proper 40. I remember freaking out as the parts added up on yours

    I always like to summarize these builds so people have an idea what it costs to do these types of builds. Usually I’m closer to 60% parts and 40% labor but this one had some really high end parts on it so parts were a bit more. Parts - $43,275 this includes engine build labor and Wizard fab...

    Spent about 1/2 a day messing with little stuff. Got the GPS speedo going and racked up some miles. Hood pins are dead. I tried to get one out to put @SMG pins but can’t and if I remove the hinges I’ll further wreck his paint. Leaving it for now. He plans on getting some touch up work done...

    Got the lights working. Wire was good but the headlight side of the switch is bad. I made a pigtail and now the parking lights and headlights are all on the first click of the switch. Temporary until I find a good 72 switch. Of course they make new up to 9/71 and 73 up but like the blinker...

    Correct. The Corbeau is 13” wide runners and Scheel-Mann is 18”. They just fit on the Corbeau bracket. That sets your height to shoot for on the passenger side. We used the Corbeau and some later model curved pieces but it could be done with square tube

    I’ve worked out all of the electrical bugs but I don’t have headlights. There is no power at the foot switch. I can send power with my power probe through the switch there and the lights come on. I have a 4 prong headlight switch. If I prove the harness end of plug I can send power through...

    Great test drive this morning. Got about 40 miles on it then the owner came out and put some on as well. Steering is nice and tight. Engine pulls nicely. Just need more time with wiring. Letting it cool down now in the AC His son LOVES it

    Wiring. So glad I started all this when I was working on it the first round. I started off installing the seat heater switches into the CCOT console. These things come with a ridiculous harness and there is really no good way to run power to the console without going under the truck so there...
