Vic,
Thanks! There are a couple of things that still need to be fixed with regards to paint, chips, scratches, etc. I may have mentioned this to you or maybe not, but the painter who did my truck died a month or so ago....he was going to fix these but....
Stuff happens... It will be fine for now. I should have insisted he mount the doors prior to painting the cab, bottoms of the doors are flared out and don't fit the gap between the rockers and doors. I'll show ya once I bring it by.....soon,very soon.
I'm gonna have to change out my temp gauge, it's "DOA" checked everything that "VetteVet" said to do, but it's stuck on cold and once I ground the green sending unit wire, doesn't move. I have a good one I just tested to swap out with it.
I don't want to drive it any distance until I know it works fine.
Have a great evening!
Ben
