Previous Next This beautiful truck has been in the owner’s family since new. The restoration was recently finished by a California company and the owner found a gas leak, did not like the way the truck handled and did not like the fact that the truck was sitting so low. Upon inspection we found that a bolt had partially punctured the gas tank and the tank was not vented properly. We repaired the tank and installed a venting system. In addressing the owners concerns about the steering we found that the rack was malfunctioning and many of the parts used were incompatible with each other. The weight of the front and the rear of the car was sitting on the shock absorbers with the springs being too short. We stabilized the air conditioning bracket as the air-conditioning system was vibrating violently. We removed a mechanical fan and installed an electric radiator fan at the customer’s request. The rear springs were arched and we changed out the front springs and shock absorbers so the car had the proper suspension travel. The truck will be back soon to have the rack and power steering pump replaced as well as remounting the air conditioning system and alternator to clean up the engine compartment appearance. This beautiful truck won several shows this past summer and the owner is anxious for the additional repairs and the upcoming show season. It breaks our hearts when so much money is spent on a restoration only to have the owner spend additional money to make repairs that should have been done correctly the first time.
