My Pete rebuild

[Nostalgic]

I'll use the shorter days as an excuse that I needed to be able to see backing this out to get the rear plate and some mudflaps on.


Taking a step back to finish up the last of my frame cleaning. Really missing the warm weather and sunlight to dry things quickly.



One positive thing - The truck came with an electric bunk A/C, and a Airtronic Espar heater. I originally planned on scrapping the a/c unit, since I read that they only run for 4-6 hours, but just for the heck of it, I hooked things up to a battery and everything seems to work. (only 62 in the shop, so not sure how well the a/c cools, and haven't opened it up to see how it works) For the cost of 4 new deep cycles and a new automatic switch, I think it's worth it to save some idling? Only bad thing is not getting to reclaim the storage space (damn thing takes up my dirty laundry basket spot under the bunk). Espar worked like a champ, with just a puff of smoke on startup, but I ordered a new atomizer and filter anyway.
