My Pete rebuild

[Nostalgic]

I'm not sure if it's just me with this curse, or anyone else experiences this kind of madness. I completely forgot I wanted to check out the foot treadle before I put the transmission in... Yeah, so it's froze solid. So, instead of mounting my battery box and going about a productive day, I'm here...



Just so that I can take a cut off wheel to my brake pedal and get to the last bolt to drop the treadle.



So far, if it didn't break, I've had to drill the heads off pretty much everything. I didn't think this truck was too filthy, but there's dirt packed EVERYWHERE. It's probably a good thing I already live in perpetual despair, otherwise this would be a discouraging day in the accomplishment department.
