    Well the Goodyear mtr sidewalls are cracking out, as soon as I feel like spending the money I’ll be trying the interco tires out. According to the guy I talked to at interco they are made in the USA.

    Well the weather was decent today and I had a meeting canceled so I went ahead and shot it. My buddy was generous enough to let me use his paint booth which is a first for me, I’m not sure I can do without in the future haha. More pictures hopefully tomorrow.

    Thanks CAMO, I have to get it done this week with the farming schedule and my wife due in a couple weeks. Do you have any suggestions on flattening agents for the Gillespie paint?

    Thanks everyone for the replies, I think I’ll try to contact Interco tire tomorrow. Also I plan on shooting it with some rapco 383 on Friday so we’ll see how that goes. It was quite the ordeal just to find xylene today in the Democratic People’s Republic of California. I ended up at sherwin...

    Thanks everyone, the gov planet guys cut thru the wiring going to the tail lights. I spent 2 hrs of frustration with my power probe and a couple jumpers, still no luck. It’s a lot easier to wire up tail lights on a trailer, I suspect the blackout lights are throwing me for a loop as well. I...

    After having a local diesel shop rebuild my injection pump, I installed a new fuel tank, all new fuel hoses, new lift pump and with some help from a buddy the injector pump. After 30 seconds of cranking she started right up. So far I’ve put about 50 miles on it. A couple trips to Steve at...

    I should clarify that bidding on generators somehow got me to bid on this and start another project. And of course that went over like a lead balloon with my wife, but she finally agreed that I can keep it. Long term what is the best way to finish out a rig like this as far as a roof, doors etc...

    M1114 project

    Well bidding on some generators led me down the rabbit trail. After a wasted day of trying to prime the fuel system I realized that the injector pump needed to come out. I’ve decided that the whole fuel system needs a thorough overhaul. I guess 12 years of sitting in the wilderness turns...
