continued the pre-assembly. We have done all the measurements, except for the distributor and oil-pickup tubes; we're procrastinating on those, but everything else is good to go.

I towed the truck home today. My Ranger sure is getting a workout, but then again more then half of the truck is missing. Now I can start putting it back together. Hopfully be driving it by the end of next month.

I needed a heater/defrost distributer and controls so I hit the Pull-A-Part Salvage lot this morning. They had one 65 on the lot.

Lucky for me they had all the parts I needed and a couple more. I scored the heater distributer, heater control dash unit, cables, and wiring harness. Also got the original mirror and horn/horn relay just for the hell of it.

In total they charged me 8 bucks.

In cleaning the distributer box I found a bunch of crap but found an old pencil in there that read, "Get Acquainted with a STANLEY HOSTESS PARTY". Back side said Syracuse, NY.

I've got some cleaning/de-rusting/painting to do!

Took the frame of my 65 SWB to powder coat after installing all the Porter Built crossmembers and c-notch kit. I hate rivets! Should have the frame back in a week!

dropped the truck off today to get the big back window conversion.

[dean jendro]

Cleaned up the windshield opening for the new rubber coming soon I hope.

[Ta2Don]

Got the '70 Chevelle Rear Springs installed. In Lieu of a BFH I used a Friend's Snap-On 1/2" Electric Impact on the bottom bolts and a cheater pipe on the top bolts, prior to doing this job I sandblasted the exposed threads and soaked everything in penetrating oil. I also re-installed the axles and brake drums after getting them re-drilled for 5 Lugs.

[CRGRS 66]

Finished installing my hitch receiver tonight, just need to do the wiring, no big, will get to it soon. Camper will be here a week Saturday, lot's of time! Also my 295/50/15's arrived at the forwarding company in Buffalo, should make their way here in a few more days.

[MikeS.]

Got the 87 front axle refurbished, all new disk brake componets, new bushings. Got it installed into my 63 4x4 Burb. Still need Warn hubs and bearings.

Got the seats out, the trash, a lot of trash, vacumed out. Pressure washed the interior and the exterior.
