Thank Odin I'm poor. I'd have such an automotive issue.
What i lack in taste, I'd make up in volume.

Just got it back from the glass shop and put a bunch of miles on it.
All systems go. Sniper temp sensor is bouncing around until it warms up then stops. Need to order a sensor see if that fixes it.
The bushings on the hood pins are gone and the hood is thumping. I may have some @SMG pins here. If not it needs some.
Other than that it's ready to ship.

Just let me know. I’ll can have set made up for you that would be ready to ship in a day or so.

A quick fix/test is to close a pair of 4” cut 5/8” rubber hose under the hinges and see if the sound of your suspension falling apart goes away.
I was convinced my axle was going to fall off until I did that.
@SMG pins for the long term win though….
Have a pair ready to go into the ‘71 build next week. It does sound like the truck is falling apart.

I’m kind of digging the hose idea for the right 40.

Finishing this thing up with a SOR carpet kit. You have to trim the holes yourself. Always scary. Luckily I have a spare trans hump
Lays in nicely. I like Lloyd mate on top of them for protection and another layer of sound/heat
Hood pins in.
About to swap the sniper sensor and take a coolant bath now

Almost forgot this jewel.
New temp sensor from Delco fixed me up. No more temp dance.
Man. I think it's done.
Wow
They usually don't sit here as long as this one has. I'm kinda in love with it.
