After three years working in Hong Kong, i finally got a break to come back to California to work on my truck. I didn't get to the front fenders, but attacked the cab floor and got my new seat, done up nicely by Gil Ramirez in Beullton, California. He banged it out in 4 days while i drove around on an egg crate. Working on the truck is great for the soul! Now back in Hong Kong, but i did get it waxed and covered in a shed until i return... Next time: front fenders, carb rebuild and fuel filter, exhaust manifold gasket, and if anyone has some simple ideas for getting that third gear freeway friendly, i'd appreciate it...
Wax was just an attempt to keep the surface rust at bay until i decide what to do with the finish, if anything. I'm in HK working for US company, I do IT stuff.
