    Valence's M66 Gun Ring

    Valence, Any luck coming up with something to put on the barrel clamp other then the heat shrink tubing? I'm getting ready to install my gun ring and have a freshly parkerized 1919 I don't want to muck up when using the barrel clamp.

    Hood latch failure.

    I'm struggling with how it unlatches itself, especially the spring loaded hood latches. Can't seem to wrap my head around this.

    M543A2 wrecker joins the family

    The hard top was in pretty bad shape especially at the mounting flange (lots of rust). Also, with the gun ring, I thought it better to go with the rag top.

    M543A2 wrecker joins the family

    Got more done on the wrecker these past few weekends. I stenciled the truck, installed the interior, installed the Vic-1, and installed the NOS canvas cab cover. Gun ring is about all that's left.

    Good pedal without air assist, not with air assist

    Borrow or build yourself a power bleeder. It's the best way to bleed the entire system. Also, as posted above, follow the protocol for bleeding.
