Did some more painting and cleaning today. just got a lil more scrubbing to do on the front below the oil fill. theres like a pound of burn access oil under there lol.
painted my turbo, intake manifold, and polished my alternator and a/c pump and tension pulley. umm cant seem to get my clutch fan off. have to find someone who has a tool for it :/
ohh well. oh and if anyone has a 4x4 trans that will work with my 96 motor that would be sweet to buy. Id prefer a manual but ill take an auto if its a good deal.

Did a quick job on the bottom of the bed.
took a wire wheel and did a quick undercoat.
its kinda a crappy job but it will do for a bit till i can fix up some rust sports and can save up some extra money for more por 15

when i first joined this forum your thread was one of the first i took a look at and i really like what your doin to your truck. i got a 76'/78' hybrid that i would like to do similar work to but keeping the gas engine instead and possibly switching over to propane. keep up the good work can't wait to see the finished product.
