I was more refering to the fact that you could get in your truck and drive it.

Just a pile of parts right now. Hoping a truck materializes soon. Getting back to the topic of the thread, I spent a crapload of money on my truck this week and in return it tried to pierce my finger for me the other night. -cuss

Today was round two at the junkyard. Yesterday I had only 30 minutes to browse truck land (Ugh, Round two of a PT Cruiser Convertible Disassembly,Yes I am Good at it. too good....) So I picked up a Accelerator Pedal from a Freightliner Century Class Semi. Finished off getting a few more parts off it and took some photos. Think I have the owner narrowed down, but can't find him online anywhere.

Anywho, truck was Built In May 2000. February 2001, it went in for a driveline alignment and had 243k+ on the clock... whew. Barely 10 months! I've got the Gear Shifter (Rockwell) off it, a Detroit Diesel Series 60 12.7L Valve Cover and this.

Hoping to fit it into my truck, here it is test fitted into a 84 Bronco (good enough in the junkyard for some idea of how it will look). Hope to make it work for my work boots I always wear. Stock pedal feels weak unless I wear tennis shoes!
