Oh I hear you about contorting. What's really frustrating is getting into those position only to have a major leg cramp set in....haha. Short of removing the cumbersome doghouse, most everything under the dash is by feel. Takes about 10x longer but eventually the job gets done;-).
The other push/pull knob is for the air intake scoop at the front of the Goat. When I was in the dash, I added the knob to plan ahead. I was going to add a hinged cover on the intake scoop for those really cold days. That idea is still in the books.
Personal Heater...check!
Today I got a chance to route my heater duct. The install was pretty straight forward. Initially, I planned on making a divider right off the heater unit into two 2" ducts. I was going to route a duct to the driver and passenger side. Then I revelation. Why not use the...
Asked and now answered.
It's one of those commonly asked questions..who made these trucks? Well here's your answer!
I was originally going to mount it inside the truck (why it's black and silver). However, I had a different idea at the last minute. When the weather cooperates, I may shoot it...
Hunter HW-20-2 Heater
After nearly a year after purchasing the HW-20-2 heater, she was finally given her new home. I spent the last couple days fabricating, painting, and finally mounting the main unit. It was a bit of a challenge to cut this bracket to shape. I used a military 2 stroke...

C-2298/VRC Lettering
This Goat is still a work in progress. The VIC-1 system has been up and going for about a year. One thing that has bothered me were the VIC-1 Intercommunication Control Boxes, is they were the CARC'd C-10456/VRC boxes. They also had mid-80's dating which was not consistent...
Lights at my 6
I live on a street with very minimal lighting. I typically take the Goat out on a dusk run. By the time I get home, it's dark. I've had a few close calls with my 2nd hobby (Volkswagens). So, after my 5th close call, I decided it was time to get some lighting on my six. I thought...
Thank you Farmitall! Allot of work and went into this project. This has been, by far, my most favorite. A ton of research went into the gear that is adorned on this 1983 themed Goat. Every piece of field gear is dated 1983 or earlier as well as as most of the equipment. It took awhile to amass...
Radio Check 5 x 5
Finally got a chance to venture out into the garage to put the radio in their new home. It was a bit of a chore however. My Goat sits in the garage. Now there are positives and setbacks to this. As you all know, the garage is a great place to put all the extras and things that...
Pumpkin Patch 2017 Trip
Back in October, the family and my nieces wanted to head off to the pumpkin patch. We had a problem though. We didn't have a vehicle to hold all the troops. Then my wife chimed in and said why not take the Goat? Naturally I to go with the idea and agreed as I didn't want...
Exhaust Tip and CONDEC badge
Another project in the making, rerouting my exhaust to the original configuration. As all the Goat owners know, there have been a rash of GG parts popping up online. I've been looking for the tailpipe and intermediate pipe for sometime. So the opportunity presented...
