The defroster vent literally fell out of the bottom cover lol.
Good news is that the floor vent works and I was able to get the flap working that controls air to the upper vents. So I can make air come out of the vents and floor, it just always comes out of the defrost at the moment.

Being that makes me not in a huge hurry to pull dash. I'm gonna see if I can get the ac to work.

Last night I actually put a can of refrigerant in it. Mind you the compressor hasn't ran in 10 to 15 years. The compressor would actuall cut on than right back off 10 seconds or so would go by and then it would cut on and cut off. Maybe overfilled?

New tint
New radio
New ac kit so now I have cold AIR!

Simple tint does wonders.

Gotta do brakes so I'm gonna cut coils and do a 1" drop on front while I'm at it, the rear is already dropped 2. I want a very slight rake.

headliner
rear speaker upgrading and gonna add a sub
lights...time to start replacing headligths, tailights interior lights all led.

So I just did front brakes, cut the exhaust to hide the it under the bed, and cut the front springs..now I gotta decide to run it like this for a bit or do a 2" rear or what.

The front fenders are at 29.5" the rears are 32.75. The rear alreaydy has 2" drop shackles. I cut one coil I think I got a 2.25 drop pretty much.
