Im just coping this guy. http://community.ratsun.net/topic/41791-fitted-some-new-wheels-update-2nd-pg/

 

I hate poke

I will compromise on flares if shit goes wrong

Shit always goes wrong with me

I dont stop till I am happy

I agree with the cops/laws/inspections and will avoid that

Can't move the rims in any more or they are going to hit

Not sacrificing rim dish to pick up a hammer and hit some J-Tin

 

Expect a fun weekend ahead :P

*yawn*

 

Well hey there everyone. Been busy driving the truck rather than working on it. Big thanks to everyone I met at Canby this year. Cant wait for next year.

 

So what is the state of my little yellow truck...

 

Radaitor flush, new upper/lower hoses. Lower one was wrong and getting friendly with the frame

Weber carb, emission deletes, lots of tuning. Purs at 500RPM and has great throttle responce.

Longer wheel studs.

Some brake adjustments to no avail. [still shudders under braking.]

New clutch slave/hose and ghetto fluid flush.

 

Bought a gray flake canopy. [$100, why not :p]

Bought a Nardi deep corn, still figuring out how to install. :/

Bought a new carpet, its currently warming up in the house until I do the minor floor rust removal.

Bought a Aztec/Mexican blanket to hopefully reucover the bench seat with.

 

D21 sub-frame can be had at my JY for $150 so I may convert to ball-joint front end. Would solve my brake issues.

 

Engine wiring harness is being disected, 8 or so wires removed that were not plugged into anything or had the systems removed. Would like to upgrade ALT and headlight harness, make the seperate from each other.

Front junk stripped down for cleaning and polishing (bumper)

 

Pitney wheels are sitting above the the truck in the rafters. >:D

 

Driver hood hinge is cracked at the mount/fuse weld.

 

Would like to clean up the roof rack, bust off some slag and remake some of the bars as one piece. Also redo the wood slats to match the new Nardi wheel.

 

Yup. Thats about is. Will be posting photos of either the floor or the engine on Sunday.

 

I am going to school for my Welding C and working at a liquor store at night, so I dont have much free time. But I have all winter to chip away at everything.

 

Later
