I'm following this intently, I'm curious to see how your converted power rack will work with a manual steering and how everything will line up.I don't even have the block pulled out of mine yet, so all options are on the table yet LOLSeth

I did the manual rack conversion over the weekend; only took a couple of hours and I used the You Tube link I posted for guidance. Im curious to see how it steers, too. Im hoping to have it rolling and the column mounted over the next weekend.1 Corinthians 1:27

I got the front end finished up this evening; looks like a clear path to the rack connection for the steering shaft hookup. Should be doing steering column and start figuring out the pedals this weekend.1 Corinthians 1:27

Got my steering column and pedals mocked up. The old column was missing several parts and had an add on blinker switch. This one came from an early 60s Dodge truck. Just had to swap the shaft so the steering wheel splines would match. For pedals I modified a set of Fiero pedals and used a Wilwood clutch master and a big bore Mopar brake master. I’ll probably start on wiring next before I start putting the front clip back together. I saved the whole wiring harnesses from the Dakota; I’m just going to modify it and use it.1 Corinthians 1:27

I’m not going to paint this but I am going to address a few spots where it’s rusted through. I found a core support and another passenger door that will help fix the serious cancer.1 Corinthians 1:27

Started getting the front clip back together. I got this grill off the other truck; it’s a 1959 but it’s in better shape and I like the look. I’ve got a little rust repair on the driver’s fender and the passenger door but the rest is going on as is.1 Corinthians 1:27

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
