Current State: In the driveway.



I spent some time going over the truck and now have an idea of what I need/want to do with it.....

The List

1. Switch Title to Texas and Register as Former Military Vehicle.
2. Fix right rear hub seal.
3. Fix Fuel Gauge and check Fuel Pressure Gauge.
4. Replace Tachometer.

6. Recondition Transmission Seals and paint.
7. Recondition Ranger Overdrive Transmission and paint.
8. Clean and paint Drive Shafts.
9. Clean and paint underside and frame (possibly Rhino-line).
10. New Canvas Top
11. New Seats.
12. Rhino-line & Paint Cab floor.
13. Rework all the miscellaneous switches (this deserves a sublist)

b. Lower Drive Lights. 12v
c. Fog Lights. 12v
d. Back-Up Floods. 12v
e. Headlights. 12v

14. Tires and possibly wheels as well.
15. Adjust Parking Brake.
16. Replace Headers and Exhaust.
17. Straighten Fenders.
18. Rhino-line and paint Wheel Wells.
