    What have you done to your square lately??

    I wish you could buy kits with the specific ends/connections for a specific vehicle... and no wiring. It's easy to build a harness but the extras, especially when they are different from the original, make it more difficult.

    I'm with you... The worst thing I ever did to a car was put an expensive paint job on it. I was nervous to drive it, nervous to park it, and nervous to own it in the end. I want to drive what I own and enjoy it. Buffing paint and worrying about dust doesn't bring much joy...

    Mineral spirits maybe? I use it to get paint off my hands...

    I built a '70 Chev stepside with my son, and he liked drop-shifting to do burnouts... and breaking transmissions. I told him the tranny problems were his to pay for and it took him two times before he realized drop shifting was maybe a bad idea.

    Speaking of which, does anyone have a body lift they've removed and don't need anymore? I need the front cushions in particular but I could use all four cab cushions.

    Chrome reverse, or stock with beauty rings and and baby moons are nice enough, and no one needs a loan.

    Three critical things... Don't mess with the float level unless you were having problems with it before. Don't mess with the adjustment screws unless you were having problems before. Any adjustment should be done very gently. Lots of carbs are ruined by screwing down the adjusting screws too...

    Do you have an overflow bottle/expansion tank on it? If not, I'd put one on and monitor the coolant there. You might find it fluctuates by the warmth in the engine.

    By this... I mean that if you have a battery that will power the starter it is being charged by the alternator... and if the truck starts then it isn't an electrical problem involving the alternator or battery.

    If the starter motor will crank to start, then a vehicle will run on the battery for a long ways.

    I had a friend that painted and he had a little tool that could shave the sags till they were gone. It had a razor blade that skinned off the high spots. The tool was maybe the size of a silver dollar.
