I've offered to go along when we deliver the truck to let them take a look at how the exhaust design and routing works best for the 62. Maybe they already know everything. Whatever gets done, don't let them follow the same routing as stock beneath the frame! A two into one cat works really well with 2.5" from there back to the exhaust pipe helps the mighty 3FE sing.

it's the one on highway 2, just north of 72nd (by my house). danny knows we're bringing it, but that's all. he just said to give him a call when we were going to bring it over. when will you be ready to take it there.
not sure how to ask this, but how was the funeral?

thanks Ige! Steve, when would you be available to meet me there?
Funeral was....well a funeral. It was my moms uncle. They are my God Parents....very cool folks! He was also a very decorated WWII hero so the honor guard tribute was one of the most spectacular I have ever seen, including a flyover! Very fitting for him! Thanks for asking.

Not today - Dr. appointment after work. Tomorrow after 3:00 pm could work. Are they open on Saturday? If none of that sounds good, Suzie could possibly be persuaded to drive out there during the day tomorrow.
thanks Ige! Steve, when would you be available to meet me there?
Funeral was....well a funeral.
That will work better for me too! Thanks Steve!

John,
The box is done. I should be able to drop it off somewhere either Saturday or Sunday. I am not sure where the cruiser is at right now but if you let me know the address I will try to take it there this weekend.

The truck is still at my house but the plan is too take it to Exhaust Pros today and Christo's this weekend.

went awesome. the one brake leak was a loose fitting. couldn't find a flare wrench, but i tightened it with a regular box end...should be good enough...didn't want to crank on it much without a flare wrench though.
got the one shackle snugged up, got the new seat foam in (i've got your box o' hog ring stuff, i'll bring it to the meeting), ac parts are in, but we decided to leave the grill off until it gets charged up incase the o rings are bad. the air dryer had crap in it, so may need a new one.
bumper/tire carrier is on and looks great, so are the sliders (i got to be the first one to stand on them ). my little trailer is almost empty, so we're close to getting all the parts in. got a bunch of the little things installed also, like glove box, passenger seat, air pump muffler thingamajiggy, new headlights.
tom found another vehicle with the same brown carpet he used on the deck and said it looked like crap, so he changed to black carpeting. he's installing deck/powertank tomorrow at christos. tomorrow night, ken (treeroot sr.) will be picking up the vehicle and he will take it to exhaust pros tomorrow morning. from there, it sounds like john would like to get it to goodyear to do the ac, then, hopefully, we'll know from 4wpw on tires/rims.
either way, it's looking like a real truck
