I'm not looking forward to doing the door windows on my FC!! Glass work id tedious and aggravating!! I may just farm it out!!

Glass guys told me lexan makes a good pattern to cut off of. I finally have all original patterns to use now!

Just $51.32 to redo the cracked door glass but sure wish I had paid more attention and slid the

tracks back some. I actually trimmed the metal tracks about 1/4" off each side to make sure I have enough room. I called LMC and talked with them about the crappy window track felts and had to send them some pics so maybe they will send me another set to replace them with if not they might have lost a customer. I glued the tracks back on and will try again tomorrow after work. Also got tail light lens ordered maybe I can get it out of here this weekend to get wired up. On a bigger note I think I sold it leave it to me to price it before I'm done with it!

Tail lights are done and I got everything under the hood buttoned up. It's gone to get wired up and then exhaust maybe done in a couple weeks!

Not yet I've still got the exhaust to get done and of course the big burn out video I always do when they are done!

It's all wired up but the fuel pump died before we got to hear it run. I let it sit without fuel to long I guess and all the sediment must have stuck it. I got a new one and will try to get it put in this weekend I'm off Monday so might get some exhaust work done as well.

Got it back home in the garage so now all I need to do is finish it!

hollisc10 · « **Reply #187 on:** May 22, 2016, 11:25:25 AM »

First real drive has open manifolds but I couldn't resist!

No doubt it's super loud in the cab! I'm glad to finally get to drive it tho!

hollisc10 · « **Reply #190 on:** May 22, 2016, 03:04:35 PM »

Had to change the pump out guess I let the old one sit to long without fuel in the bucket. Once the new pump was in it fired up in a half a crank!

hollisc10 · « **Reply #191 on:** May 24, 2016, 07:34:43 PM »

Gave it a comet bath and got all the tree moss off. the colors came out even better once I cleaned it! I had to replace the cooling fan the new one on it locked up solid and ran me hot once also had to tighten the temp sensor it was leaking a little. Still needs a few small things but it's come a long way!

miraclepieco · « **Reply #192 on:** May 25, 2016, 12:54:13 AM »

Looks good! The Comet really brought out the color. Did you put anything on it to shine it up or is that sheen just because it's still wet?

Looks great

I done the inner wheel tubs for the bed and got the new door felts installed since the first ones were junk. I also got some new shocks for the rear and took off someone's custom coilovers!

Also got a good picture with an old train car!
