Default M818 rebuild

was inside the barn putting the 818 back together and a Great friend Jim Henderson comes down from sitting inside his trailer in new orleans.. i really think he came off the beach.. had a tan anyway... i bought this truck a few years ago for a parts truck. found out it had all new running gears. brakes system,, engine . cab wiring harness. it was in the rebuild line at shebly when the orders came down .. no more 800 series to be rebuild.. so they stopped on this one.. i have been getting all the parts for it last 3 years and now just starting to put it all together. jim came and helped me install the stuff that takes soldier A and B.. dash with some wiring and air line work. windshield . some steps.. now it is starting to look much better. my big thanks to jim for spending the day with me and helping out. i hope to have this truck ready by rally time.

Gee I feel left out! No one called me to come by and help. I was not busy today and could have lent a hand. Offer is still open. I am not an expert but I follow directions well and work well with others.
