Just what I needed!
Thanks guys. Well after one gallon of high build primer, some scotch-brite sanding pads, a half roll or paper, two rolls of tape and one gallon of Rustoleum hammer coat silver paint it is driveable.

Just what I needed!
Thanks guys, I have installed and aligned the doors and fenders and mounted the visor . Now it's off to be stripped and I have a few days of sanding to do.

My cb!
7.3 IDI, The Cobra 29 is a classic performer that with a few upgrades makes for a simple good performing and reliable radio. Here's a little something I picked up along the way. 2 antennas for the cb will only really be beneficial if you can get them spaced at least a 1/4 wave apart (approx 9ft)...- IDIeselman

Help please, What years visor will fit what years trucks?
That is correct except for the F150 and a few F250's. 97 was the change over year but, the 350's carried the same body style thru 97..- IDIeselman

a little educational video
Yes and no, Replacing bolts with studs will cause minor distortion but, not close to enough to worry about unless it's a max effort all out racing high RPM application, The vid shown what most people never see but fails to say most machine shops do not go through the trouble to do it correctly...- IDIeselman

Lookie at what i may get ahold of in time =P
The man must be a good judge of character and know you were not helping him for return but out of kindness, or you most likely would not be in mind for that car. I too have a soft spot for mopars.

Glow plugs working. Wait to start light still on/off quickly.

That is a sign of your GP system working as it should. Usually about an 8 second burn followed by the afterglow cycles.- IDIeselman
