Just a quick update.................

I'm heading back up tomorrow to see if the cab is back from the blaster and tinker some....I hit a small set back when I pulled the oil pan....SLUDGE!!!!!!!!

pulled a bearing cap and bearings are toast....it ran really well..........ugh!!!!!!! Motor has been sent off to the machine shop...................wasn't expecting to do a complete rebuild but, it is what it is. I'm keeping the original heads and having those done also.

I may install the SS brake lines while I'm there but probably will wait till Sunday and have the boy do it.

Progress is slow at this point, need the cab completed and back on the truck before I can go any further.......
