Former in-bed 6 way gooseneck trailer plug wiring splice into lighting harness. Thought about heat shrink **** splices. Thought about just wrapping with Super 33+... Decided to solder and heat shrink. It will be behind auxiliary fuel tank and difficult to get to later. GTG... Send it. CT

Lord, I hope not! Plan to set it to get exhaust and such tied in. Fire it up in the frame, then build a truck around it. (Hopeful) It is a FORD. Of course it will leak ! CT

Got some work in this evening. Removed aux fuel tank. Thought it was empty... Slipped and fell, upside down. Thought we were done with this truck ******* on the floor. Decade or more old gasoline, isn't gasoline anymore. It transforms into one of the foulest smelling substances known to...

This was in her 1966 Mustang Vert. Without her approval, in the presence of friends and beer. And did not clean the rear fenders... She noticed it the morning of a car show. I plan to leave matched sets regularly! CT

This needs a **** tag ! I could just stare at the underside of this car for hours. That is EXACTLY what I imagined it would look like. Flex joint or bellows after the collector. Thank you for the input. CT

I'm leaning towards using them. Browsing around the interwebs I'm seeing many custom exhaust systems using them. May reduce collector gasket issues? Between not using solid motor mounts and old school ladder frame, there will be some twist. I'm hoping that if traction can be found it may pull a...

To this day... Still catch **** for this... CT

Next step... Complete !!! Power washed frame. Members Mark (Sam's Club) purple degreaser... I will put this up against Castrol Super Clean ANY DAY !! Finger print remover in its natural state. Damn good start! Got at least 80% of the boogers gone. Lot of OG frame paint left. Much...

Why would I need to modify the header? This header is supposed to be a drop in fit for this truck. Only exclusions were for camper special and front sway bar, if I recall. Headers came with 2.5" collector adapters. This is what I paid $400 for when I asked the local muffler shop to make me an...

Plan is to clean up frame and suspension. Paint with Summit 2k chassis paint. Rebuild front suspension. Then set engine and transmission. Garage Journal professionals... Exhaust questions? I have long tube headers and an auxiliary fuel tank... Always something in the way. Exhaust must route on...

Sunday follow up... Cab at the magician's shop. Hood is under the blanket. My truck bed. Just needs cut/buff. Stay tuned... CT

More random, not chronologically correct pictures. Truck is starting to get some color. These parts are done. Also the front fenders and inner fenders (body color) are painted too. Inside and out of every panel has required almost 2 gallons of single stage 2k urathane. Using...

They have been redoing water mains in our area (rural, not subdivision) with excavators. Basically back-dragging the spoil is "finished" grading. This is across peoples front yards by the road and driveways. Guess it is in the "easement" not private property. Looks rough. CT

Industry standard is pull to at least 500 microns. Isolate and monitor decay for at least 15 minutes. CT

30 inches is a lot of tube! Bought this barrel a few years ago. New Old Stock in OEM oiled paper and NIB (not cheapest option). 1st Turkey hunt in West Texas, I missed by many feet to the right. The front sight wasn't staked tight. I used a thin zip tie to hold the sight in place, bagged a Rio...
