The Shop Truck

1971 Chevy C20 with a custom flat bed.
More detail work today. I just made the drivers front corner a lot more crowded. First I made a windshield washer reservoir.

Then I decided that this would be a nice place to hide the nitrous solenoids.

We were able to measure for hoses today, so that will get hooked up when those get here next week. When I put the coolant overflow back in, the corner looks nice and clean again.

While I was working on some of that, Amber finished up the cup holder install.

It's just over a week before we leave.
 
Sunday we did the majority of the install for my dash cam setup. It's the same one I run in my driver, 4K front camera and pretty good quality. I figure there will be something that happens on this trip that I'll want to see again. All the wires are run through the headliner, which was a pain, but very clean looking.

I cut a circle of the awful tint off so the camera had a clear view.

I finished up the wiring today, then I made some quick side panels for the center console, it makes the interior look much nicer. Eventually I'll either cover these with upholstery, or get some clean aluminum and bead roll it, or have it bead rolled.

The passenger side covers the electrical panel. It's not a big deal to pull the 3 screws out, but I think eventually I'll make an easily removable panel on this side.

The last thing I did today was to pull the fire extinguisher I had stuffed behind my seat out and mount it in the bed.

We leave in 8 days!
