Finally got a chance to put some miles on yesterday.
Put about 20 miles on the old guy without any drama. Lots of thumbs up around town.
Like I said....no real drama. Still some punch list stuff to figure out.
Those of you who are following along on the 47-55 page on Facebook know all...
Been tinkering on the truck as time allows. Got the under hood wiring all done and covered up. Hood is on and the front bumper as well.
