As promised, I just took a few minutes to post a few pics of the progress as of this weekend. Today, might put the left door top on. Then some wiring tomorrow.....left fender and bonnet this weekend???

Thanks to all that have helped with my questions thus far.

Cheers,

Julian

Genuine NOS Lucas fog lamps as an added extra that I found a year ago for only $100! Strange....MADE IN ITALY....but Lucas decals and stamped in the chrome is the correct Lucas emblem!!

Note the 2 refrigerators behind the truck.....I commandeered those early on as storage for new and refinished parts! After cleaning out the white fridge whose interior looked like a biological experiment gone wrong :eek:

Thanks guys. Progress a little slower the past couple days due to a RABIES scare that we are still dealing with. Very concerning-and expensive-situation.

That said, I installed the extra harness I made from the drivers compartment to the back of the tub to run the work lamp, rear defroster window, and rear speakers on the stereo. Also put on the side mirrors.

Yeah...the cardboard is there to help with the leaks!!! Actually, it is there because last weekend I filled up the coolant and was ready to fire her up. Leak at the new water pump to lower radiator hose (water pump side). Got coolant everywhere....and pushed the hose up a bit.....still a leak. I am going to eventually drain the coolant again, push the hose up all the way (we're talking quarter inch), double clamp it, and hope. Will test with water before draining and filling with coolant.....had to go buy more!

Cheers,
Julian
