    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. I may paint the mid section black in a few weeks but for now I like it. It turned out alot better...

    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)...

    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..

    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...

    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. I recieved my addiction to speed from a 70 340 Duster. Not nearly as nice as that Runner but it was...

    a little educational video

    Very true. Sad to say but now days 90% of builders/performance shops either don't know or wont go through the trouble to do correct machine work. Bill sounds like he had a clear edge over most of todays builders. What did he run?

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

    When you were "repairing your glow plugs" What were you doing? Did you wire up for push button start and bypass the relay?

    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.

    Agreed. Your best bet would be the RF Limited EC 2018 Xtreme Digital Echo Microphone. http://customcbradios.com/Product.aspx?ProductId=643967 While it does have some crazy options, the echo/reverb is one of the best I have heard. Many people actually hate listening to audio enhancement but...

    WOW Beautiful 86 on E-bay

    I may sound crazy and I just may be but, If this was next year and our 07 supercrew was paid off....I would have bought that truck already. Another will show up I'm sure but that is a nice well kept truck that will make the new owner happy for years to come.
