Not much to report, in respects to modifications or maintenance: the truck has been in service reliably for quite some time. It is earning its keep as a work horse. I wish I could report that some body work and painting were going on, but Autumn has demanded my focus in other areas...including professional work, which the truck has proven itself excellent for (as long as I'm not building a deck). I've had it a year, now, and I love it more every day. It's in a state of function/looks that are fine, for now, but I sure dream of the day it's all the original color. I was hoping to get to some cosmetic stuff before winter sets in, but that doesn't seem to be in the cards. Preparing for winter comes first.
Thanks to the forum, recent exchanges have put some things on the list: new carpet, for one. (Thanks, MIHIFISI and contributors to that thread). Frame-rust removal...which is where I left off...is on the list. Possibly replacing the head gasket, again, due to questionable leakage...not sure about that. I have the replacement front bumper (almost in perfect condition) to paint, yet. Painting the dashboard is a desire, and thanks to those who participated in information about painting plastic.
There are some really terrific contributors on this forum. I'm certainly grateful they're here and share so freely.
And thanks, camoit, for behind-the-scenes keeping the forum running smooth, which includes the absence of Trolls and spammers, but also keeping the Administration board upgraded.
