Winter Beater Build 2.0- '66 Short/Fleet BBW

[theastronaut]

Not much to update, just been driving it. I drove it full time a couple of weeks ago for about a week and a half while I had the interior out of my usual daily for deep cleaning/detailing. I've put a bit over 2600 miles on it now.

I installed a set of Koito H4 headlights plus a relay harness last week. Huge difference in visibility at night compared to the old sealed beams. I tried a set in the Miata last fall and liked them so I stocked up on them












The truck has been getting right under 15 mpg with mixed city/highway driving. I ran across this site in one of the C10 groups on facebook, and picked up an HHR fan to do the conversion last time I was at a Pull-a-Part. This should help mileage a bit and eliminate the fan noise at 50+ mph. Right now the fan is the loudest thing at highway speeds.
