    Its a rental unit, right? Maybe a routine maintenance deal led to a new exhaust being mounted incorrectly? Seems if it can be attached in multiple positions, that's the design flaw. After reviewing some manuals on online, seem all of them have the exhaust angled 45 or 90 degrees of the operator. 48D

    Sight hole under the dash? Might be worth investigating it now, then later. Your 1% argument is valid, but as the build progresses, you may find it more difficult to jack the cab up (ie to many things tied up on the firewall, etc) Otherwise, things are looking good! 48D

    That appears to be a 51-53 with the rare VW camper shell package.... So most of the responses were for a 48-50 truck. Sounds like you found a fix. Thumbs up! 48D

    After you kill the rust you need to dry it out and then seal it with an Epoxy primer. Its high in resin and designed to keep moisture out. Its technically not sandable because of its tough exterior. You are suppose to spray a sandable primer over the Epoxy primer. A good Urethane primer for shaping, then an Epoxy as a sealer (thinned) over that . In the old days, you'd use an etching primer (acid based) but that's not used much anymore. I only use etching primers in areas I can't sand very well (the inside trunks and doors etc) Its acid based which is why most don't use it anymore for complete jobs. Etching primers are thin, and didn't always hold the oxygen out like Epoxy's do now. Epoxy primers come in black......some guys stop right there and call it done, until it needs more black. 48D

    Do they have the rubber cap on the end of the support? Most are missing as they rot off etc..... 48D

    It affected the Hospital I work at and quite a few of my friends. The lights (power) went out around 12:40 am.....The Hospital had just made the diesel gens state compliant with remote off switches......the state didn't turn the new switches back on after their test and of course, our guys didn't catch it either. The Hospital was dark for over an hour until engineering discovered the mistake. I video'd the whole event from my dept's perspective. Turns out that gets me an invite to the next eval meeting for future power deals. yea me. Hope they got donuts. 48D Battery

    John let me floor his dual carb L6 anyway I saw fit on the freeway in the Bay Area....it was impressive. Sanctioned racing is highly regulated, personal builds are not. I'm interested in how Fargone proceeds with his build. 48D

    I have several vises....why can't I have a pretty one I keep by the fireplace???? Bid entered. 48D
  25. 48Dodger
    Build it, race it, if you don't win, rebuild it, race it until you win. Then sort out the good numbers. To much talking and not enough racing. Good luck with your build Fargone, enjoying your documentation. 48D
