More mirror black powder and some new mirror red powder came in. Laser IR thermometer came in too but it had a cheap Chinese battery in it so I couldn't play with it Wiring harness finally showed up and it's not quite what I was expecting. I'm going to have to reuse some of the factory harness. Voltage gauge showed up too.

I got the wiring run for the headlights and blinkers into the cab. Got the wiring for the linker/headlight switch, hazard switch, and wiper switch sleeved and run. Sleeved the wires that run through the cab to the bed.

I'm going to powdercoat the valve cover, intake manifold, and some more brackets tomorrow.

Pretty picturesque update.

I got the wiring for the headlights and blinkers run. When the fender is on you won't be able to see any of it.



Got the valve cover coated. It's really shiny. The parts where it's not perfect are from where sometime in the past, the previous owner soldered it to do some ghetto repair.


It's that freakin reflective!



Coated the new wiper arms. Got a new linkage arm and a wiper motor from the junkyard. That'll Work when everything's rewired.

Blasted

Coated

This shows the detail the powder can give.
