Truck looks great Dan. I'll keep you posted on how the fuel tank goes. Looking forward to getting it replaced...mine isn't leaking bad but I don't like smelling leaking diesel when I walk past it...lol.
Hang in there Dan, I know it is frustrating and I'm sure I can speak for most of us about it just not going fast enough. Unfortunately all of us are working on trucks that are generally 40+ years old and lacking in the maintenance and care department. Truck looks great and your efforts will be...
Wow Dan!! You have been busy. Looks great. I like the semi flat black as well. I was busy yesterday putting my bumpers and rock rails back on my jeep, had sent them out to be repowder coated and lacrosse with my sons. Then spent today prepping a floor in the house for tile. Loving this weather...
That looks awesome!! Did you make that panel? There was guy on the deuce facebook page that had one like that and I had told him he should make them and sell them. I think they would sell especially easily being most people add more gauges. Nice job though, looks awesome.

I'm sure...
Looks great Dan. I like where you mounted the boost and Pyro gauge. How difficult is it to bypass the FDC? I've read write ups and looked at diagrams but still have some issues grabbing it. Have to tell you that following your thread is awesome and helps a lot for someone like myself who hasn't...
Gotcha, I like the hardtop on yours as well. Glad to hear you like it, hope that when I get one it has a hardtop but if not...then i'll be looking around for one.
Looks good. Is there a big advantage in adding a 12V system..or converting to a 12V? Are you going to swap the filters, oil and fuel, out for a quick change spin off system. I plan on doing them when I get mine.
