This place always has ah lot of universal Hotrod/race car stuff..http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Search?query=throttle%20cable

I've had old cars my whole life. This M1028 is just the latest. In all my years of playing with classic vehicles like this I've learned one thing. (THESES ARE HOBBY CARS) you have to be willing and able to do the work yourself. You simply can't take a 30+ year old vehicle into a shop, of any...

No these speed bleeders have bin around for about 20 years now. I've had them on most my cars and hotrods sense then. They have ah check valve in them so all you do is crack one at ah time open and pump the pedal. It only takes one person and they bleed brakes VERY well. and you don't need...

Yeah after seeing your pics I wouldn't bother patching that. Just do a full floor pan, it'll be much easier and stronger when your finish. Make sure to get ah few cans of weld through primer to spray on the inside of all the inner floor structures. after you get them cleaned up.

I had problems bleeding mine as well I ended up getting these for all four corners. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/rus-639510?seid=srese1&gclid=CJnV1OLHp8ICFeJF7AodHFMA6g

I've bin looking into this myself. There's ah couple solutions I've found (#1) there are ah few companies on Ebay and on the web that will cross drill, slot, and zinc coat ANY rotors you order. It takes ah couple weeks for them to make and send them to you. I have them on 2 vehicles and they...

Is your original cover repairable?

Took off the door strikers and installed some 7/16 rubber hose over them. Now the door closes ah little easier and no more rattles. Then took off the passenger side mirror and pulled out the factory plastic sleeve, and replaced it with ah piece of rubber inner tube. Now hopefully the mirror will...

I've recently fallen in love with the liquid teflon tape. Goes on better/cleaner.

:funny: HA! Yeah here in GA we have the same kinda guy. Except they wear ah camouflage hat with the bill curled into ah cone. And ah "Salt life" sticker on the back window, however they're tag suggests they live 300 miles from the nearest ocean.:grd:

OOPS Sorry, I guess I read what I wanted to read. Thought we were talking about ah 1008.

If you look down inbetween the cab and the bed you can see the top of the tank. And if you twist your head right you'll see the short rubber lines spider webbing out from it. If it were me I'd undo and slide the bed back before I'd try dropping that heavy tank.

Yeah I thought these being government vehicles they were exempt in all states?

I'm going to call that battle damage. Those are impacts, not rust. If it were me I'd preserve it by hitting it with ah brass wire wheel to clean off the rust, paint it black, then (using an art brush) fill in the craters with silver paint. Ah great conversation piece and a reminder of what these...

:ditto: Yeah I'm getting the same readings. It hangs out at 160 do to the cooler fluid being pulled out of the radiator by the pump. I also have one of these...

I think you posted about this before? I suggest before you go tearing apart the engine check for the cheap and or simple solutions first. Are you sure it's oil and not trans fluid? Sense disconnecting the oil lines have you THOROUGHLY flushed the cooling system? You may just be seeing residual...

You have my attention. Please post pics of this project.

Recovery, Didn't know you could do that? All though I think I'd rather just have ah plate , then have to get pulled over and explain it constantly.

Good looking truck! Now get your self ah lighted license plate mount before the FHP gets yah[thumbzup]

:ditto: this is the same one I replaced mine with.
