Otherwise you might end up being another "nose typer".....which aint all that bad.....but nose grinding and nose welding can be a real pain.

Someone help me.

Welding rod in the nostril, clamp on the toes, and just get after it!

for your turn signal keep your eyes on ebay for a nos one. They go for anywhere from 50.00 all the way up to 200.

Chevy switches wont work. Here's one that says chevy and gmc, but again they're different and IDK what the differences are. Something to do with the ears maybe not long enough? Someone else might know the specifics.

If you get one dont torque it down too much. they break easy!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1960-1961-19...61b6cc&vxp=mtr

also turn signals werent required on trucks until 1962 so you might never have had one!

Holy cow, Ed...Good eye.
I know it isn't a '60.....but it sure looks like a solid start on a great burb.

Doug,
Let us know if you go look at it.
And bring us some pictures...

Back on track for acerna's linkage.

FMP,
I think cabin fever is one of my favorite fevers of all of them.
At least you're penned up with the FMP Junior Varsity crew.

Most of the time, its just me and Trevor jockeying for position nearest the fire.

In case anybody's having a hard time figuring out what Rockdriller's talking about, it's this Craigslist post from Rapid City, Doug's home town:

62 GMC Suburban Classic - $3000 (north of mall ridge)

1962 GMC Suburban, odometer: 63000, manual transmission

Classic 62 GMC half ton 4x4. With a 4 speed manual, divorce transfer case, limited slip rear diff., and a 351cu inch V6... this truck is the epitome of what a truck should be. Hop in the cab of this truck and take a step back in time. It hasn't been driven in six years, but it ran well at that time. Everything works, but it will need to be delivered (not driven) to its new home. Delivery can be negotiated. 3000 obo. Call or text 605-939-3970 or email
