          To Late

          Yes your correct about that. I wished I had the welder for stuff like that. I have the little feeded welder but no gas for it yet. Good luck and hope it's done by June.

            Are you redoing your firewall for aftermarket A/C?

                        It's as low as I would want it right now. It sits good to me. I think I'm going to have the upholstry guy do a cover for it.

                              Fittings

                              I can now inflat the rear bags from the cab. I wired a momentary electric switch into the GM Delco Pleasure lift guage. Works great but I need to add a small light so I can see it at night now.

                                5- Install the new American Wiring Harness for the interior and the gauge cluster





                                I'm thinking that's it for now.... Pending what I find, I may try to accomplish a few more things if my budget permits it.
