Which I am also not currently working on.

I am however working on the Jetta latest electrical freakout.
Id post a picture of that but it only dies in the rain and cold after the suns gone down
Pics didnt post but more importantly,
I looked out the window this morning and the neighbors cat was hanging out licking his nuts on the dash of the jetta.
The neighbors cat doesnt have keys to the jetta.
Turns out, if you have a leak in the power roof seal, it shorts the switch and the roof opens all on its own.
Rather than fix the problem, VW put an allen key inside of the dope light switch that can be used to manually wind the roof shut.
Assuming you can figure out how to take the light apart without breaking it

My 1978 truck I called Grunt, 4:56 gears, TH400 with a 500 Caddy in it. Drank the fuel like a drunkered, 5MPG. Was planning to make it my truck for pulling a big trailer but divorce happened and I had to get rid of it.

Then my old 79 3/4 ton Camper Special. 4:11 gears, TH400 with a 400 SB. I heard a lot of bad about the 400 SB engines but that truck was the best truck I ever owned. I drove it into the ground, had a good 20 years use out of it and it was already 14 years old when I got it.

I made up some CAD models of the text "Chevrollac 500" in the Cadillac font that I wanted to mill out of AL but never got to it before getting rid of the truck.

My other projects, well technically my sons’ projects. 1989 Dakota 3.9 and 1990 F150 302. It’s a lot of fun keeping older vehicles running, but easier than the new stuff. Not to mention teaching the boys how to use their hands and tools.

Bought this one at a farm auction for $200 (I think) about 4 years ago. I rebuilt the brakes at that time but so far that is about it. Been gathering parts for it as I come across them. Right now it is on the back burner until I knock out my '67 C20, '97 K3500 (newest family member), and some work on my Grand Marquis. Might get back on it next summer, for now it is in a corner of my shop.

My first truck was a 64 F100 with a 223 I6 and a 4 speed. My mirrors were similar to those. The combination of bias ply tires that had flat spotted and speeds over 20mph made the mirrors impossible to see anything clearly because of the vibrations. It was a good old truck.

Good looking '63! I have a '66 F-100 that was bought new by my great grandfather. It's in way worse shape than yours. Been on the hunt for a clean 65-66 cab with a title for a good while. I also have a '68 F-250 that I'm contemplating selling or trading to get another car or a smaller truck.
