This weekend ended up repairing some wiring from my younger days... back in my teenage years, I wired in the 5 marker lights just tapping into the license plate lights and leaving the bare wiring exposed. This weekend tore all that out and rewired all 5 lights, while covering all of the exposed wiring with loom and really securing them out of the way. My extended cab always had issues back there from corrosion, so I really wanted to make sure I took care of this now, to avoid headache later.

For those who haven't seen or don't follow me elsewhere, this is my daily driver... 93 Chevy C3500 CCLB with a 6.5 that my dad has owned for the last 20 years.. Really it's the truck that inspired me to build my 94 before I knew I would end up with the it. It's really the main reason I sold my red extended cab 2500 since I didn't need two daily drivers.

One of these days I plan to re-do it. The interior is in great shape with original carpet/seats/door panels in the same burgundy cloth color. (Except this truck was factory and has PW/PL) The interior won't need to be restored at all, just protected during the painting process. It's on its 2nd motor (about 160k mile takeout from another 93) and it's on its 2nd transmission. The truck itself has about 280k miles on the body. The bed is shot from years of abuse and the rockers are starting to rust, however I'd still love to re-do it some day.
I've pondered all kinds of ideas on it, from 5.9 cummins swaps, to 4x4 chassis swaps, making it a CCSB, SAS swaps, etc, etc. Part of me thinks owning two CCLB 2WD's is kind of silly, so I could go for building a CCSB 4x4 daily driver. Unfortunately, a good CCSB 4x4 frame for a reasonable price would be hard to find given their short production runs. Realistically it will probably stay put on its current frame even though owning 2 CCLB's is kind of silly.
