Wow, been almost 3 years since we pulled "Sassy" out of the barn. That's what the wife named her. Shes taken ownership and we have driven the crap out of the truck. I've done alot of trading vehicles around in search of happiness but ended up getting my very first truck back. Sassy is still doing ok. I just rebuilt the Qudrajet last weekend and realized that the reason I keep plugging filters and ruining this carb is because the fuel tank is RUSTY. So I got a tank from my uncle (he has a 71 Custom Deluxe too) that has never had ethanol fuel in it, so I bought the POR15 tank sealer and the necessary prep stuff. Tomorrow I plan on swapping tanks and starting over with fresh gas.

I'm gonna go ahead and replace the fuel pump too since its leaking and we plan to take it on the 3rd annual Hot Rod Tour of Texas. We are excited, this will be our 3rd tour in the truck. I was a bit worried after last years tour because it was running so bad, but after the tune up and a compression test, I'm no longer worried.
I replaced the radiator some time last summer with an aluminum one, the original one was just so nasty and the truck kept wanting to run a bit warm. That did the trick.

As much as we drive the truck I no longer care so much if its "all original" if the original drivetrain gives up, I think I have the wife convinced to LS swap it.

Enjoy the photo dump.
