Well got some crap done this weekend on the old wreck. On Friday the Brown Santa dropped off a big box of 4" pipes, so I went over to a Fastback66 to shoot the bull have a few beers and install this new exhaust I just got. I also fastened the cruise servo as the new fenderwell didn't have hole yet. Saturday I put a better tailgate placard on and then I went to another guys place to go see what he had for drivers doors layin around and he wanted to check out my new exhaust as he is gonna be ordering a few sets. Any way on my way home I burned up a headlight switch, so this morning I tore into that(Had to indian give one back from stillsmokin). I replaced one a while back with a crappy used switch and at that time I noticed a PO had cut the factory plug off it and was just using female spade terminals, their wiring skills left a little to be desired. It had burnt a wire, one they had just twisted together. I snagged a plug out of an old dash harness and got it wired in and installed the switch an low and behold it works like it should, except the dome light doesn't work with the switch. The project after that was to put a clean set of door panels(old ones were dirty as heck and had a bunch of holes in em) on and fix whatever was wrong inside the doors. I ripped the drivers side off and found that a lot of the inner structure was fubared so I zipped a few self tappers in a few spots to stiffen it up, it needs a door bad. The pass side needed a speaker and the speaker harness repaired so that got done and on went the panel. I also replaced the window and lock switches and bezels, now the power locks started working.

Pretty productive weekend!! The fun continues tomorow, Its gettin a 89-92 shifter gonna change coolant and dig into some wiper issues.

Cman off the top of my head no, but you could pm hanson01 and see if he would pull the code off his old mans truck.


Tom, yes it would look super slick but the body would have to be perfect.
