But wait, there's more!

There's my grandfathers 1959 Custom Royal too! He was a Dodge, Plymouth, Chrysler, DeSoto salesman after the war until he retired. He sold the '59 to a lady who brought it back after a couple days because it was too big. He liked it so he kept it...

 

Did the interior get flooded?

 

I'm not sure really. It was on the higher part of the barn though. The CTD and RC were in the lowest part. Water definitely got to it but not sure how deep. My brother said the interior was dry when he checked it after the water went down and there was no sign of mildew or smell. Vehicles and he had dozens, weren't on our immediate list once the flood waters receded...

 

KRB, dang I still can't get the vids to open, for some reason they need permission. Do you have the vids on another format?

 

Today I removed the ecm and shipped it out to be refurbished. Then just a bunch of engine cleaning while she's down. I need to sand the top lip around perimeter of roof. The only place that has rust on the truck. ECM was messing with me. No Charge, No Tach, No wait to start and No A/C

 

Don't worry about it nonrev. My brother took them and sent them to me and I know nothing about how to manipulate them... It's just ones of us driving them out of the barn. Nice sounds though! Thanks again for your troubles.

 

Welcome to the Forum Barmer99. It's refreshing to have a real human being join. Good luck with your truck and take care of that gutter, I need to do the same on mine. Where did you ship your ECM?

 

All of those items fail at the same time? All of them need signal from the CPS. Maybe the ECM is fine. Improper gap on the crank position sensor can cause that. Broken wire, bad ground or failed CPS.

I need to do some Rustoleum rusty metal primer on my cab roof. Its a club cab. Not sure how to be comfortable going up there to accomplish the job My almost 69yo body ain't what it was.

 

Doing the fleece Neville alternator swap

 

Back in the day Jim Lane did that exact thing and has a pretty good write up on it in the stickies.

 

That is exactly where the inspiration came from!

 

Drove her home in the rain with no wipers.

It's FINALLY raining here and I reckon it confused the wipers enough to give up the ghost about half way home.

At least now I can convert to the JDG Designs bushings that I bought a while back now.

 

I'm glad you got some rain down that way! The drought map makes it look bad in KY.

I use the Rain X washer fluid, just in case my wipers quit. At least then, I have a sporting chance to see the road a little bit.

 

They need to give that weather a break here in TN. Can't get my truck back on the road.

I took some overpriced off brand wheel cylinders to my truck 50mi away. Dropped 2 gallons of gear lube there too. Maybe tomorrow and Monday we can get out and finish the brakes.
