You're welcome and I' sure you are plenty smart enough to do it. If you can post them, then I know I'm right when I say that. Here's a little help, if you are interested. A couple of guys helped me with this thread, in the area I help moderate. Check it out, it might help :)

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Starting to install the Holley Terminator X. I am not good at electrical. However this setup so far is pretty easy.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

I could have flown in to help....:lol::metal:

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Waiting on you Rob! I am not done... See you Saturday morning LOL

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

:D would be fun...

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Starting to put some sheetmetal back on.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Looking great... what E-fan kit is that?
The stance is gonna look killer

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Very nice build! Tagging along. What radiator did you use?

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

I had a local Radiator shop build the whole setup for me. They used Spal fans. I searched all over for a kit. I like the black stock look. Fortunate to have a great radiator shop in town that can get one foe me. I guess I dont know if they built it or ordered it. Its a 4 row with trans cooler built in.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Wiring is pretty much done. Only have to finish the fans. And start putting this thing back together.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Looking great! Are you happy with the location of the ECU? I was thinking about building a bracket to put it under the dash but yours looks like a good fit.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Yes I like it there. I looked at under the dash too. But its a tight fit. At least I can get to this if I needed too. Hopefully that is never LOL

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Truck is coming out really nice! I'm guessing this one is a keeper? I finally got the motor mounted in mine, but still waiting on some parts....:(.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Ah ok.. Yea it looks like one i never seen.. it looks good though..

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Thats a good spot..

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Rob, I sure hope I keep it. I have a bad habit of selling them when I get bored lol. However this one means a lot to me, so I’m planning on keeping it for sure.

Your truck will be sweet!

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Hi all, I got the inner fenders back it. Mild Slosh Tubz. Painted the same satin black as the core support. I’m telling you, it made the engine compartment look really good I think.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Flipped

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

How was the tubz install? Do you have to do any modifications? Was it rubbing before? Thanks and quality work as usual!

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

The factory inner fenders rubber the tire. That kind of stuff drives me nuts!

The install was not to bad. Like anything when your getting ready to cut a perfectly good part, its a little nerve racking. But it wasn't to bad. I like the fact that they look fairly factory. I did have to trim around my QA1 suspension too. You can see it if you look close.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Yeah, I was going to say they look like a better version of a stock fender. The sheen on that black paint is perfect too.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Thank you

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Got the hood on and installed the CVF racing hinges. I am not sure if they match the theme of the truck or not. I still have the old hinges too. But these thing do look sweet. And seem to operate well. I have not got them fully adjusted. They are not as easy as I hoped lol.
I am going for a stock-ish look until you open the hood. I have some Coy rally 20’s on order as well.
You can also see how I routed the heater hoses for the most part.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

flipped

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
 

Have you thought about spraying the hinges to match the fenders? I bet the shape of them wouldn't jump out at you if the finish matched. Even if you left the shock/spring and hardware raw.
