After fixing that, all the lights except one brake light work. Hooked up my power probe and it won’t light. Bulb is good and I’ve got 12v at the plug. So now I’m looking at the circuit board.

Sounds like it’s running really nice and smooth! What was the bussing noise while you were moving it?
Seat belt buzzer.
Got the lights fixed. Now to fix the brakes and new tires and start driving it.

Having had one of these when brand new...double check the brake switch adjustment. mine liked to not quite turn off the brake lights and then the heat from the bulb would start to melt all the good stuff inside the tail lights.
I’ll take a look. So far so good.
Next plan is to replace the rubber brake lines if for nothing than preventative maintenance. Passenger drum is dragging so I’ll probably go through both of those with shoes and cylinders and whatever else. New pads and pin grease up front.
Gotta order the door pins and replacement rollers and get those done.
And troubleshoot the air conditioner.
I’m struggling over tires. Hot rodder in me wants something cool but the practical side says just get basic tires.
I’m tired of spending money on repairs. Think the first “splurge” is gonna be window tint and a functional radio.

Pulled the rear drums because the passenger side was sticky. I can’t confirm for certain but I think these are the original shoes as those little lock washers they put on from the factory were still on both sides and there was a ton of brake dust in these. Passenger side definitely got some type of oil contaminant in it but I can’t discern axle or wheel cylinder. Either way, new shoes and cylinders are going in and I’ll have the drums resurfaced.
Passenger drum.
Yeah nobody ever puts those back on.
That was my exact thought. My next thought is how have they survived 185k miles and still have that much material left on them.
Early rear ABS...and the front bias was pretty heavy. My buddy bought an 89 C1500 brand new and when it had over 200,000 miles a wheel cylinder started leaking ruining the rear brakes...but they still had a ton of meat left on them too.
