Got a couple of good days of work done on the goat, almost ready for a test drive. But my new radiator core suports are too tall, gonna have to whittle them down some.

All my linkage is now hooked up, seems to shift pretty well thru the gears as well as the t case.

Gonna take a week off for a camping trip more pics when i get back.

Vacation over, back to work.

Problem number 467, i didn't get the original alternator with this truck, looking at all the spare pulleys i have, i don't have one that matches up. Anyone got a spare? Or idea where to get the right pulley?

The goat alternator pulley seems unique.

Found the pulley thanks to Mark's help and it is on the way. I think i found some radiator support pads that will work, things are looking up. Will have radiator pressure tested this week and hopefully installed by next Tuesday.

I have some extra radiator pads, they look identical to the cucv radiator pads, typical GM radiator parts.

Got my radiator pressure tested today, good thing as it had a couple of small leaks in the corners, not where i thought it would leak.
Radiator shop says it will be done tomorrow.

The radiator support pads i went with i got from LMC truck, for a early to mid 60s c10 truck, they look like an almost exact match.

That's some fast turn-around.
