Got to love that first start
Hi Jordan
Got to love firin up out side the truck. One of the reasons I first made a test stand, to start and run the engine and cooling system out side the truck so much easier to see and get at everything before it is all tucked away in the truck. I'm enjoying your progress. Cheers Phil

While waiting for some more engine part to arrive I’ve jumped back into making up the sheet metal parts for fitting around the radiator. I’ve also made up a set of the sheet metal that fits on the bottom of the fenders to cover the gap near the cab step.

I spent some time in the shop making up some more sheet metal parts. First up was fitting the lower radiator splash panels. These came in two parts and seal off the space between the bottom of the radiator and the mounting bracket and the frame cross member. As expected everything lined up perfectly.
I also started in on making up the radiator shroud. I got the top one done up.

The radiator shroud is coming along. This was a pile of work to measure 5 times and then cutting it out.

The other day a nice package arrived containing a new made wiring harness for the truck. However the company wasn’t able to do the metal braid shielding as found on the wireless trucks. So I ordered a roll of stainless braid and have been slowly getting the harness sheathed in it to match the original. So far it’s turnout looking great. The last photo is an original wire for comparison.

Mice may need dentures
Hi Jordan
Nice work on the wiring harness. Want to see the first mouse who tries to chew on that, wonder where you get mouse dentures. The shielded wiring and that every panel on my C60S had braided grounds like that was why I was pretty sure it had been a radio truck, even though it didn't have a body when I got it. Cheers Phil
