That reminds me of some friends from Bozeman. They stripped down a 14ff and shaved it then upon re-assemble discovered they shaved the top, not bottom.

Hell, I have a brand new GM crate for mine, sitting in the garage. You are way far ahead of the curve.
Got a big weekend comin' up on Veronica(blazer).
Haven't had much time to work on it since blazer bash so I've been looking forward to this weekend all week long! Not sure how much photo worthy stuff will be done but if there is any, i'll snap some for sure.
Hopefully by Sunday night i'll be left with rear suspension work and nothing else.
Haven't been this pumped up to work on it for a while!!!

Radiator overflow and some breathers for the fuel tank, 14BFF, 205, 203 and SM465
Close up of the breathers.
Quick shot of the tube doors. Kinda hard to get a good side shot of the rig where its currently siting. Fairly narrow area.

Dig the breather setup Kert.
tube doors are looking good too! No cupholders?????
you better wear goggles when you drive it with all that dust in there...
Nah, no cupholders for me. At some point I'd like the camel back setup on the back of the seat.
Dust is gettin' pretty bad huh. Need to two it 20 miles before I drive it.
Got one of my Bilsteins installed last night, Gona try and get the seond front one on today as well as a stubborn radiator hose issue.
Upper hose is close enough to the rear bulkhead its impossible to install without a kink. Couple options to fix the situation. First one would be altering the fitting that goes in the rad. Turning it into a 60* fitting.
Seond one involves scooping a clearance out of the rear bulkhead to come up with the room needed. Then it'd need to be skinned back closed with a sort of box.

Which one keeps a easy to find replaceable hose?
If you find yourself cussing at it, you can blame it on me if you want...I'll take the fall for it!
Either way doesn't make much difference for the hose itself. I'm gona try the 60* fitting first, if that don't work, I can replace the fitting and then go to the work of cutting the notch.
Got home tonight at 12:45 a.m. Worked on production most of the day. Spent a couple hours on a stubborn furnace that didn't want to cooperate. Got it going in the end.
After that, got the second bilstein on, finished up my oil filter adapter and oil lines. Machined the piece to alter the fitting for the 60* elbow. Hope to have that put back together tomorow night.
Windshield wiper motors, The high/low is two seperate ground wires if memory serves. Where does the Power come in at?
