    Map light on a 93 D series.

    Thank you sir. I did get it figured out. I had hooked up the yellow and pink wires wrong. Now trying to figure out if I want to put in the original cargo light (have to cut the cab) or get a modern style with a brake light. Just working on it when I can and enjoying driving it. It’s evolving...

    Ours have dropped, 60’s in the morning, 80’s 90’s during the day. Supposed to hit 100’s , end of the week, then it should be good for a while.

    I don’t remember how many records we broke this year but, we had a 113 consecutive days over a 100. The previous record was, 76, in 1993. We also had, 61 days, at 110, or above. I’ve seen 100 days without rain, a few years, since I’ve been here. I have never minded the heat, my guys used to give...

    From what they’re saying, the 100’s could be gone for a while. We smashed all kinds of records this year. Who knows what Mother Nature will do?

    Besides working on old cars, I am an avid wood turner.

    You are quite welcome sir! When you love what you do, it ain’t work. I’ve been a lucky man, doing what I do for 44 years, and loving every minute of it. Before I moved here, 8 years ago, this coming November, everyone was asking, are you going to retire? Heck no, I’m starting the business again...

    Heck, we have been smashing records with the heat. First time ever, temperatures hit 110, in October and not just once. The highs will be just above 100, through next Sunday. I don’t kick but, a lot of people do.

    Looking at an early Sweptline

    When the time is right, it will happen. No reason to leave of course.

    Ciao from Apache Junction AZ

    While we were in Gold Canyon, Friday morning, we could see a smoke towards the top on the west side. We haven’t seen any choppers or planes, coming in from our side. Hopefully if we get the rain we’re expecting, it will help the cause. That’s over 23 sq. miles, it spreads fast here. Take care...

    Anyone tried

    I didn’t know, actually. Every big block I ever owned, had the correct transmission. Had it built for the application and was done. I saw the price. $1200 for the adapter, plus having the transmission built to handle it. Why would anyone do that? I’m sure a good core could be found and rebuilt...

    Ciao from Apache Junction AZ

    I like Apache Junction. We’ve done quite a bit of work there. I hope you’re no where near the fire! We’re working in Gold Canyon and the smoke is very visible.

    Anyone tried

    The trans won’t bolt up. You need a big block specific trans. The last year was 1978.

    Map light on a 93 D series.

    Thanks you sir. I figured it out, the pink lead was actually for the map light, the yellow is for the door jamb. It’s all wired up along with the glove box light. Next, the cargo/brake light. Take care.

    Map light on a 93 D series.

    I’ve got a D150, I’m going to add the map light above the gauges. Of course it’s not wired for it so, I thought, I’ll wire it in, no problem. Here’s the goofy thing, I wired the new glove box light and it on the same circuit, as shown in my factory manual. The glovebox light works fine, the map...

    77 Dodge?

    My 78 had amber grill lights. I actually bought amber aftermarket front lenses for my 93. I think the clear ones are too plain. The 78’s are my favorite grill, 79-80’s next, with the quad lights.

    77 Dodge?

    77 and 78 were the same. My 78 I bought new had amber turn signal/marker lights. My buds 77 he bought used had the clear. I always liked the amber better, personally.

    Who knows what about the 4.7 engine?

    I had an 03 quad cab, I bought new. I sold it in 2016, when we moved, with 127,000 on it to a good friend of mine. He sold it last year to a friend with 178,000 on it. Never any issues, except 1 water pump, I replaced about three months before I sold it. Of course maintenance is a factor with...
