    Ground to gas tank?

    Is that a thing? My 91 cluster in my 79, fuel gauge reads past full, 3 o'clock, at all times. Cleaned ground, ran it straight to the battery, no changes either way. This is a new 87 sender in a new 87 tank. Idk where else to look without dropping the tank back down.

    Interior redo

    Heat is exactly how you do it.

    Interior redo

    So, the dynomat, killmat, noico, whatever butyl barrier is a good start, but to really block noise you need mass. Most of these companies sell mass loaded vinyl, mass is what you need to stop low freq's, this stuff will stop buzzes and rattles, but won't dull road noise or exhaust noise...

    Cassette Tuner Recommendations

    I'm planning on having a stock one rebuilt, places like https://www.joesclassiccarradio.com/ Can rebuild your stock unit to have all the fancy things and not look stupid like the retrosound ones.

    I'm glad to hear it's solid, we do a lot of BSR work to make it that way lol.

    New daily driver

    That's awesome, I'm on that program, interior soft trim, I've driven about every version, but I like that one the best.

    LWB To SWB Conversion

    Like many first time posters... He never bothered to come back. But, since we're having a discussion in here, I have no issues shortening a frame. I've done several now, and never done anything but a straight cut either. Now, if you need a template, because you can't math out the difference...

    Aftermarket sheet metal

    I've found there's black, and there's gray... And it's almost all Taiwan. I use Classic Parts because they don't beat you up on shipping, but there's only so many people out there making 40 year old sheetmetal. Recently I've started a job at Mopar, so I pick up from NPD because I can get it...

    Does my engine have a chance of living?

    It was running when you took it apart? Then it will run when you put it back together. Don't overthink it and turn an intake job into a parts truck.

    Bed Panels: Welded or Bolted?

    In the past when I've done this, I built a little cart, and used square tube tacked across the bed rails to square everything, then locked the bolts and tacked the corners.

    1980 K10 Stepside filler pipe housing

    It's not reproduced, junkyard only. Mine is metal BTW, so I would imagine you can make something work with enough cleverness. Fillernecksupply.com has alot of parts.

    Car Cover

    My old one, my nephew bought for me, it didn't fit the truck, flapped around, got all tattered. This one will be in the barn now that the truck is basically done and running and driving.

    Car Cover

    I just ordered one, hope the lack of mirror pockets doesn't matter.

    Car Cover

    I've searched alot on ebay hoping to find something truck shaped but everything seems geared towards newer crew cab stuff.
