It's just tied up out of the way for now.
Getting a radio and something to fill the throttle hole in the dash are low priority for me. Getting it where I can drive it is what I'm most interested in.

Orrie, thanks for the radiator hose numbers. NAPA didn't have the Gates hoses but had a NAPA equivalent that is made in USA so that's what I'm using.
Man your truck looks awesome. If it were me I would buy a throttle cable and turn it into a dummy. That way it fills the hole but also looks good.
