Real Progress

Finally one day of reasonable weather and health.  The last week has been tough with respiratory illness in my head and chest.  I managed to get out of short periods of time and work while hacking my lungs up and feeling like I was 20 feet underwater.  New Years Eve I finished the fuel line from the tank to the engine bay and New Years Day I used beer to bait the neighbors over to put the bed on the truck.

Today I was feeling mucho better and got the bed lined up and bolted down, installed the bumper and tailgate, and rebuilt the rear wiring harness.  The harness was in good shape and after a quick install the rear lights are working.

A friend came over and I fired up the motor to let them experience the sound.  The mufflers under the bed make a nice rumble at idle and it sounds great.  I am ready to get this thing rolling.
