Re: 68 C50 Looongbed pickup build
Last but no least, this isn't something I did this weekend other than getting one more picture. I mentioned back in post #31 how horrified I was at the amount of smog crap on the 89. You literally could not see the motor, just the air cleaner and hoses and... Crap! I want this thing to look somewhat like a 68 when done (I expect the brackets are different) but the AIR pumps and ten thousand vacuum lines had to go. In fact the reason I switched intakes was to lose the EGR. Anyway, here are a couple of before shots along with an after (all of which I've posted before) and then the kicker is the pile of excrement that I removed!
That is all for now folks. Next week I have to work on the exhaust manifolds to plug the holes left from removing the AIR system. After that I'm ready to start bolting the frame plates back on!
