'69 Fargo W100
Today I bolted the starter back up, ran the battery cables, bolted up the inspection covers, cleaned out the cab, ripped out the carpet (too bad, it looked like it was nice, just covered in rat **** and dead spiders), vacuumed it out, cleaned up the seat, bolted in the gas tank, and put the seat back in.
Looks like the previous owner cleaned up the floors before I got to them and sealed them up. The seat has been reupholstered, and I was able to find the arm rests and door panels behind the seat.
I used a gas tank I had in the back because the existing was full of rust. The one in the back is an earlier one, and has a filler tube coming out of it. The one from this truck just had a hole for a separate tube to run into it. I just cut down the separate tube and I'll use a large hose to connect the two.
Old tank
New tank with the cut down filler tube
