Hello everyone... yes you have seen this ride elsewhere on the forum, both in the gallery and elsewhere over the past couple of years. She is now in the barn for the winter, but I thought I would share a couple of more pics with ya. A word to the wise, the custom heater hoses I installed, blew off the new stainless steel fittings on top of the water pump housing, while revving the beast in the driveway a week or two ago. Coolant everywhere. Bummer! Will be replacing these hoses asap with conventional hoses as I can no longer trust the fancy hose setup. I anticipate that I will not have any further issues regarding freak'n heater hose failures. I also had to modify the slotted rear bumper upper support plates and trim out approx. 1/4" in height within L/R side rear outer skin cross panel notches - to allow the affixed rear bumper mounting bracket to properly seat vertically against the rear cross panel. The rear bumper is now properly attached and one less thing to deal with as winter approaches. I have included just a couple of recent pics, taken of the old girl, to share with you on this post today. As always, Keep On Rock'n
