Sorry for the poor pics, but i cant really get my new camera to work proberly. it felt good to see it with wheels on again a huge mile stone for the project still alot to do and some parts have to replaced (center bearing, upper balljoints, control arm shafts etc) drive shaft have to painted, some spots on the frame have to get repainted, the last 4 brake lines have to be made and alot of more. She aint no show stopper, but a work horse. http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/j...53_640x480.jpg http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/j...57_640x480.jpg http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/j...58_640x480.jpg |

Oh Yes its the wiring harnes :lol: Started out with this pile http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/j...01_800x600.jpg The PO's had just cut the wiring for the headlights at the junction box :crazy: so cleaned up the remaning wire and solder the ends and going to do the same to the rest of headlight wiring and clean it up and change damage sockets. http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/j...02_800x600.jpg Anyone know what these are for they where under Dash http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/j...03_800x600.jpg this one has some kind of relay and 3 bulbs atacted http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/j...07_800x600.jpg Most of the wiring wasent so bad just need a clean up and the non factory wires removed and some soldering it came out pretty good http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/j...08_800x600.jpg Still have the wiring for the fuel tank selector valve and sendering units to clean up http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/j...10_800x600.jpg the wiring for the tail light was also just cut like the headlights cleaned up the ends and Soldering it togther http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/j...11_800x600.jpg Also was out tearing the donor cab part going to take it home in 2 weeks and then chassies should be finished by then. cab going to completely torn apart and send for sandblasting, it have the usual rust rockers and corners but thanks to LMC i have everything i need to repair it :devil: |
Re: 84 Crew Cab Rebuild
Very cool to see this going on in Denmark of all places. How hard is it to legally drive this type of vehicle over there? I know the laws are rather prohibitive regarding emissions and safety on older vehicles in Europe.
|
Re: 84 Crew Cab Rebuild
Emissions arnt too bad actuly. but its hard to get it on the road as it actuly weighes to much also there are 3 diffrent veichels it can be registed as first a Crew Cab and that means it MUST be registred to a Company and no peronal use, sec as a normal pickup but then i have to remove the rear seats, third as a Car
|
Re: 84 Crew Cab Rebuild
Bought all the remaning chassie parts
front brake hoses, 2 upper ball joint and glow plugs hoping to start the engine monday, changed oil and primed the oil on as it have been sitting 7 mounths now, the engine and just send my exhurst manifold to machine shop so i can get flanges for 2 new turbo manifolds got both alternator and power steering pump monted and misc stuff its getting there hoping about 5 weeks then she is road worthy |

Wow, that sounds crazy. Can you register it as a regular truck, then put the seat back in until the registration is due again? |
