came home from work today and about three houses from me I see a late 80s Lincoln with the hood up and a guy frantically pouring water into the radiator. Laying in the back of my IHC is a gallon of antifreeze. I pull it out and take it over to the guy. Turns out he is a professional welder. He's coming over in a bit to give me a hand with any welding that has to be done on the IHC. Who says being nice doesn't pay.
 
LOL

Haha good deal. Truck looks great, can't wait till it's driving down the road! Then it can make vroom noises along with you :)
 
spent some time on the new rear end today moving the spring perches and yanking the shock mounts off it.

Ooh, I like surprises. OK, well most surprises. Some surprises anyway. Alright, not really.

This one you have planned sounds fun anyway :D

simple things dont this week. motor sits level and the mounts are welded in place. took the bumper off for a cleaner roll pan, and sanced the roll pan. one of the simpler body mods for the weekend will be the tail lights installed in the roll pan. here are a few pics.
