My restoration project is going well except I had a small set back during my work on the muffler. I was not able to get under the truck to install the muffler so I have been trying to find a person with a lift. The muffler is ready to go on but its hard to work on it with ramps. I will figure out a way around it. Basically the muffler goes on, a clamp connects to the exhaust pipe and the tail pipe connects to the other end with two or three places to hold onto the chassis. I am still researching it. In the meantime here is my priority list for the next few days.
1. Fix the horn (redo the wiring to it).

| Horn Button |
The horn button inside the steering wheel needed to be fixed. Filled it up with epoxy and put it back in. It seems to work except the horn needs cleaning or it is stuck. I applied 12V 5A to it and all I get is a clicking sound. How much current do these things draw? 10A??
2. Fix the rear wiring -- updates soon.
3. Install two new shocks on the back -- need to order
4. Fix the steering slack. -- Not sure of the source yet
5. Install new trusses and a wooden bed in the back bed.
