izzo Posted July 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 Yeah, just wanted to show people i still had it :rofl: I am on the hunt for a few items for this thing. I'd like a fasten seatbelt deal for the dashboard. Even if its not working, just something to go there... Door panels. Seat belts. Getting a flat screen to go in it, bout a week or two out on that yet... Just a small 15" screen tho, nothing to serious Quote Link to comment

izzo Posted July 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 some random shots... Engine bay is dirty, working on that at some point. not sure when. Just gave it a tune up today. New plugs/wires/cap/rotor. Need to do an oil change, waiting on that for the time being tho... Couple random oics and a better one of the interior. Quote Link to comment

izzo Posted July 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 went to the dmv yesterday and got title/tabs for it... It's mine now :D Installed a relay for the cig lighter and a few other aux items. Also removed the funky home made starter switch put in, put a relay in for the starter. Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted July 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 Went to get in the truck this morning and take off for work. no start :\ Thought it was the ground, turns out the battery connection was shit on the positive side. Fixed. To bad i already removed all the relay and wiring trying to sort it out. Oh well... Ill put it back in friday. came up with another problem :rolleyes: Went to check on my niece, left the truck running outside. Now normally it gets just above middle and then drops, builds back up, and repeats. Tonight when i hopped in the truck it was hot. Cooled down as soon as i took off. Will be replacing the thermostat this week with another 180 and see if that does the trick. Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted July 11, 2011 Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 Sounds like the fan isn't pulling like it should. If you have to go down the road to get it to cool, that is. The fan's job is to pull air across the radiator to keep you cool at a stop. Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted July 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 :blink: Good call. This truck was an autotragic when it came off the lot in 78. The 5sp was added later. It has the automatic clutch type fan on it. Wonder if its pooped out. I do believe i have a new water pump in my work shop. Will just need a fan if thats the case. Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted July 11, 2011 Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 I know it sounds silly, but make sure the fan is on the right way. They DO get put on backwards from time to time.. maybe the PO goofed? Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted July 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 Ill go check it now actually. i got a flash light in the green glob sitting next to it. I thought it was stock setup, but could be wrong. Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted July 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 Facing the right way. This is the first time its done that. Guess ill try and flush the rad out friday. Quote Link to comment
Wide14u Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 was that your shifter is that a pistol grip Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted July 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 Yes, its a pistol grip from a late 60s early 70s mopar. The one i posted in your thread, is not. its from lynchfourtwenty's truck Quote Link to comment
