I have a few more pieces to lay down which should happen tomorrow along with letting the carpet lay out in the sun so it can take shape to go into the truck.

 

[red66rider]

Ran into a hiccup... carpet is installed, driveshaft is in but shifter is going back to b&m. Was moving along with the install and well the t bar that holds the indicator and reverse/neutral safety switch is installed backwards so it will have to go back and be warranty out

 

[DNFXDLI]

Well that sucks!

 

[red66rider]

Well that sucks!

Yeah it does big time...

Oh well. Still waiting to hear from b €m so i can send this thing back

 

[red66rider]

Well while i wait for the new shifter i figured i tackle some small things. I cleaned up the washer bag and cap which both were super gross! The blue was black.

 

[red66rider]

New shifter will be here friday... so excited

 

[red66rider]

So a small update... just need lockdown cable installed and fluids changed out and this thing hopefully will be driving. Spent yesterday installing 67-72 taillights so the truck can have reverse lights, wired up the reverse lights just to find out the relay from the kit was bad, secured the driveshaft, and ran the vacuum line. It's getting there

I like those old ford colostomy bags.

Simple yet effective design.... I was shocked I was able to get it cleaned up as well as I did lol

It looks very nice.
