more photos, got on frame with new poly body mounts, windshield on with new rubber, rear seats on, molded ruber flooring in, heater restored by Aatlas in, steering column in, brake booster on, fuel tank all hooked back up, e-brake hooked up, antenna on, windshield wiper linkage on, clutch lines back on, ...... problems we ran across, please look at one pic i am posting, just right below the edic motor mount is a threaded hole in which when we starting filling radiator up with coolant it all starting coming out that hole, what goes in that hole (circled in blue alone)....other things were late model OEM transfer inner rubber boot and outer is way smaller and does not fit (probably having something to do with my factory 5 speed???) Theo, if you reading can you send me some pics of how your metal line that goes from outlet of sedimenter is routed to go near the inlet to injection pump, we can not figure it out...

That is a huge amount of good work in a short space of time Rob, you are very fast 
Sorry Rob, I only saw this now. The only pic I can get to from where I am now is this one which doesn't help much
It actually runs on the inside of the frame just past the brake line splitter and then turns upwards to meet the hose from the pump. I will get you some detailed pics tonight from home

Got more put on the cruiser this weekend. Got wiring harness all taped up, cleaned up where others in the past had spliced into. Bought new battery and installed, worked out the bugs of shorts and only have one more (hazard flashers work great but when I try and use turn signals either left or right it blinks once and freezes?), installed wiper motor and cover, installed heater blower, added dash pieces, installed visors, mirror arms, and mirrors, doors, rebuilt door limiters (loud catching noise now?), installed front and rear painted bumpers. Most time was spent trying to crank engine which no luck yet, turns over fine but having fuel and oil lubricating problems. I have bleed fuel up to the IP and then when I go to bleed number 1 injector nozzle hardly getting any fuel? Went back to the IP nozzle and cracked them after pumping primer and getting hardly and fuel? on oil system, i am cranking for approx 5 seconds and had an oil plug on galley pulled but not getting any oil, not getting any at rocker shaft neither? so trying to figure out how to prime oil system???? 4WD light works, backup lights work, sedimenter light works, E-brake light works, brake fluid light works, clock works, brights and fuel gauge works.
