    my goal is to have a running chassis.
    then take the body off and finish that.

    bought the wrong ignition control module .
    so i still dont get to hear it run for a while.
    i got the brown grommet one which is for ca. emmisions.
    anybody want a free I.C.M.?
    i really need to add $500 to the over all costs of any projects i take on to account for all the unusable parts i buy that i end up throwing in the dumpster....

    Sounds great even with the stock exhaust manifolds. That is a close tolerance for the drive shaft and the cab.

    that leaf spring ended up too long.
    it is at a spring shop now
    they will re-arch all the leafs and make it 1-1/2" shorter.

    Congrats to you Billy! Big Moment for sure. And my hat's off to your builder/mentor, whatever his name is! Great work. Wish I had a mentor, other than my long distance friend Jim in Florida! He's been a treasure for me. If not for him I'd have given up loooonng ago! Your build gives me inspiration to resume work on my '29 Essex. perley

    well
    as of yesterday
    i got the seats/steering wheel/ shifter/gas and break pedals installed
    the fuel system is finished
    so is the shifter linkage
    all i need to finish the brakes are two 24" soft lines
    and i found some real nice repro model A door handles that are perfect.
    i have an unacceptable amount of play in the steering.
    so it looks like i will be rebuilding the 64 f-100 steering box.
    it looks a lot like the ross box.
    a hot rod is whatever i decide it is.
