Looks Good Homey....

Are those new door seals I see ??

Couldn't believe how nice the truck was when I replaced mine. Didn't know that they made such a difference with noise and drafts....

Thanks man. I am starting to feel like I am gaining ground on this thing.

I haven't got to the seals yet. Must be the contrast between the bright red causing the black to look darker.

It has been raining quite a bit and I got roped into one of my dads projects( making a culvert pipe out of 22.5 iron truck wheels with the centers cut out.) so I haven't got much done on my truck.
I did get some 1918-1930some BUICK rubber pedal pads and ordered the shift ***** for my transmission and transfercase shifters. not much exciting.
Oh and I am working on a better turn signal stalk as both of mine are cracked and broken.

RockAuto they are for a1918 Buick part#CB13 Mark "maybe" told me he bought a set and they fit good. They are pretty soft rubber and made in the USA.

The brown truck brought these today. They are really nice looking ***** and they match. I think I will order another like the transfercase ones only blank in case I need one for a PTO.

Today was so nice I had to do something on the ol Dodge.
I got the trans cooler lines and the cooler off the side of the block. Also took the TVI cable off.
Now I can get to the torque converter bolts.

Yesterday I got the torque converter bolts out and drive line off. Also a few miscellaneous things to make it a little easier to take the transmission out.
The weather is supposed to be nice next week so maybe I can get the transmissions swapped.

What are you going to do with the cooler off the side of the block? I'm looking for one if you're ditching it, PM me if so. Thanks.
