35 Ford truck project

[Clint]

Got the fan, alternator and belt installed. Also mounted the shifter and linkage. Drinking beer too!! Lol

 

[Clint]

Started replacing the rear window frame where the rust worms got it! And drinking beer!

 

[Clint]

Got the starter on. Oil filter adapter and filter installed, radiator and both hoses installed. Full of water and oil. Want so bad to light it off!! I am trying to wait for the exhaust first, hopefully exhaust this week.

Looks Awesome, Clint.

Thank you

The engine has been resurrected!!! Fired it up and broke in the camshaft. Won't let me load a video.

 

[Clint]

I like the clutter in the pictures. You can tell its all about the work not the cleaning.

 

[Clint]

Hell that is clean!!!

 

[Clint]

Finally found a drive shaft and had it shortened. Painted and installed yesterday.

 

[La Hot Rods]

Got a smoke pole... you must be getting close now.

 

[Clint]

Getting closer everyday. The wife is having ACL surgery tomorrow so I might get some garage time while baby sitting her.

 

[La Hot Rods]

Hope the best for the surgery.

[La Hot Rods]

That's good to hear.

 

[Clint]

Put the truck on jack stands and ran through all the gears. All was good. Welded vent shut and got drip rail installed. And drank beer!!!

 

[La Hot Rods]

Mearl would be so proud.

 

[Clint]

Always a goal of mine!

It's not just the Missouri folks who can drink some beer!! Us Kansans are pretty good at it too
