Re: Dumptruck Dolly
Took power from keyed source and hooked up the hei distributor (Red) and also connected the electric choke on the Edelbrock carb. (Yellow fuse wire transitioned to a red wire) Hooked up ground (black) per Edelbrock instructions.
Yikes! Dollie’s fuse panel terminals need a scrubbing...rusty! Last edited by fishnixon; 06-13-2021 at 11:49 PM. |

Re: Dumptruck Dolly
The instrument panel is pretty plain and I needed an oil gauge, so in it goes. I have an option of leaving the bezel in chrome or to add a faux wood grain sticker ala 1970’s...I’m not quite settled which way to go...thoughts?

Re: Dumptruck Dolly
Dolly didn’t have the correct connector on the fuel tank...so I scavenged from a parts truck just what she needed.

Re: Dumptruck Dolly
Gearshift Knob looks Great.
Mine is the (Reverse on the left). That is a 67 Thing. I could not help but noticed one thing. The Mechanic that trained me do Brake (DRUM) jobs. 40 years ago ![]() ![]() ![]() He always would take soft jaw Pliers and lightly bend the spring hooks. I put an Arrow on the hooks of what I am speaking of. Glad to see your post My Friend ![]() ![]() ![]()

That’s some good advice! I’ll do it. Not being a mechanic myself, I appreciate everything I learn, especially from others. Thank you! |

Re: Dumptruck Dolly
Dolly has made it out of the garage!

Re: Dumptruck Dolly
Moving around the yard…I still have a pretty long list of things to do, but it sure feels good to be able to move under its own power
