Yeah, that PS bracket cracked on mine, I had it welded.

hahahahaha "had to jack truck up to get the chair out" I've wedged a tire under a car and had to jack it up.... the whole shop was laughing

Oh, that's terrible. My tag cost me $35.25, came with a temp til the real thing shows up in the mail, and is good until 2050. That registration will probably outlast me and the truck both.

I got the application for historic tags this week and drove it around tonight

It was last week, but after a starter and flex plate replacement, after sitting 4 years, it fired right up. Took it for a ride around the farm field, then around the country block, man it was sweet to drive this old beast around again.

Hahahaha Yes! I need a rollback. Just jealous, that's all. I do need a flexplate, a starter, and a bracket. But I need the broken starter bolt out first. Thanks, though

Wait..................Rick............. You got a rollback?

I have priced those. Seems like Mag-Hytech is pretty proud of them. Did you get a deal on it?

I used this stuff on mine where I had to bend it to fit. Very nice. I recommend it to everyone.

I'm on it, it's working for now. I'll get a helper and see what's going on, Thanks!

I didn't take it out, but I unbolted it from the dash and firewall. And put a new electrical part of the ignition switch in it, so I really angered it. I unhooked the shift linkage from the column, moved the shifter around, ran the yoke on the trans through the gears, and hooked everything...

Finally got to drive it around today. Had a symptom of not coming out of Park, not sure what was going on, but seems ok now.

Man that looks nice

Went to the Zone, picked up the alternator, had to adapt it a little but it works, 29.3 volts at the positive terminal. What more can I ask for, you say? My brother in law has been busy patching the holes left over from taking the red light off the roof,:naner::naner::naner: this truck is really...

So I got the truck to start today, turns out that I really am my own worst enemy. When I did the Doghead relay, seems that the crimp on terminals I used on the control side of the wiring, (the small wires), were incorrectly crimped and were making intermittent connections. Strange, because it...

Tim, thanks for the encouragement. I've had 2 close friends tell me to convert it to 12v, but I really hate to do that. I see the point, but I think that the issues I have had so far are 12v Chevy problems, not the alternator though. I sure wish I had a known good one close to me to do a...

After checking some fusible links, I repaired one, found a burnt wire. Repaired the burnt wire and discovered that the alternator that I had rebuilt (Gen 2) wasn't isolated ground cause it made fireworks when I hooked up the battery cables. Luckily Gen 1 hasn't been messed with, after swapping...

I'm on it. I'll check that first. Thanks.[thumbzup]

I have a Power Probe I have been using to check stuff with since it shows 12v or 24v or ground. But I haven't checked the fusible links there. I haven't checked any of them because I'm not sure how to, unless I cut them out.

Well 2 weeks later and I have managed to completely piss it off. After figuring out there's no signal to the starter, no signal to the relay under the dash, (the doghead relay), I have printed off the diagram from the sticky and will be replacing the electrical part of the ignition switch...
