Updating the list from above now that the Capri project has been canceled. Meaning this will become more of project vehicle. it will still pull the trailer occasionally. However i have located another heavier duty truck to pair with the trailer as well. Ironically that one is another Square body GM.



Anyways on to the list to cross items off of it:


New parts that have ended up on or at least with it while Ian had it:


New calipers and brake pads
New Alternator and Voltage regulator. (He did say he changed both a few times but could never get it to charge. I suspect a connection issue such as ground as i had similar problems with an old Dodge)
Changed the carb for one off of a Thunderbird (mostly because the tbird carb was in better shape)
Rear brake cylinders


Parts i have acquired through some horse trading:

Ignition switch lock cylinder
Door lock cylinders
Possibly a better matched carb

All these parts are coming from a friends '76 F150 in the near future


Matched tires and wheels, Got these from a '92 Dodge D250 via a deal where i am posting a Kijiji ad for a friend. Hopefully i will get to that tomorrow as today was spent working on my PC to get it reliable again. Fingers crossed that these wheels clear the brakes. I am at the point i am not opposed to the idea of spacers if needed however i suspect they may just work out as they look a lot like the split rims minus the split ring. Bonus points for possibly being able to use the original hubcaps!

Parts it will need to be driveable:


Flex hoses
Fuel tank clean
Fuel pump
