i was only talking about the boot, if I had a spare hump it would be yours, ill check the 409 custom sport this summer , don't know how good it is her vinyl roof rotted the steel roof rite out surprising the frame is still good.
went to clean up the driveshaft .. thought Id check it for straight ness .. I had been chasing a slight highway vibration before I started the resto .. anyways .. noticed where it had some grind marks .. seems it was cut at one point.. and its not properly phased ..
well .. there you go ! Pulled a good one out of my stock .. lol .. should take care of that !
Did a little more work on my brother in laws 47 Chev ex Saskatchewan farm truck this morning.
He bought my old Grande HO350 and TH400, we installed it all last fall, and I built him an entirely new wiring harness front to back. Relayed the headlights, did a central powerpoint. The truck has a 72 mustang front end and a 9".
Got it to the point of cranking over today, and when the weather warms up we'll push it outside, add gas and fire it up. Can't play with gas inside as it's heated with a woodstove.
It turned out to be a super fun old truck project, and as rough as it looks there is almost zero rust...

You should have told us... i had cheap out of province labor with me...

I asked the wife to take me out back and shoot me and she said not till all the car stuff is gone, guess I'm Gona live a long time.
