Whoa! Nice work.

Can’t believe those smog pipes are now such a scarce item. Lmk if you locate a source - I should stock a spare.

I never dreamed the smog pipes would be a problem. I have a line on some nice used ones if it comes to that.

I dropped the steering box off with Marty and crew at PowerSteering.com today. The shop is meticulously clean and organized. I have been dealing with them for over thirty years, but this is the first time I visited the shop.

We have some members in Nixa and the area near PS.com.

WE now have a rolling chassis with brake and fuel lines hooked up. I found stencils at Hobby Lobby for the numbers on the transmission and drive shaft, but I can't find them, so it may be back to HL, so I can get them ready to go in.

I used PS.com to rebuild the oem pump on my Blazer and was really pleased. Great way to go!

Looks like you are on track for summer driving Larry.

Looking great Larry. Love the markings. Keep up the great work!

...Marty sounded taller on the phone.

I don't know about summer driving Pete. My wife has a major remodel planned for her house (She lets me sleep here, lol) and she reminded me tonight when I got home I was going to have to get somebody started on it. I think I have it all farmed out but It will still eat into my truck build time. I'm trying to find somebody to paint the truck to speed things up.

I have never worked on a Fremont truck before so, to me, the markings are interesting on this truck. The frame had tons of inspection marks, but the cowl and front of the bed had none.

I snuck off from the house remodel this afternoon and got the power steering box installed and found another inspection mark on the pitman arm. Blue paint across the center.

I didn't get much done this weekend. I hoped to get the exhaust run completely.

Slow progress. I think I will start it before I drop the cab on it.
