I get behind updating things here. Like was suggested, oil pressure was just a gauge malfunction. It drives great.
That said, since November I have put much of the interior back together, after adding some sound dampening to the floor under the carpet. I re-sprayed/dyed burgundy some eBay door cards (my body guy broke both mine) and got new carpet lowers (old owner cut speaker holes). Replaced all the window gaskets, and now am looking to replace the frame on the passenger smoker/vent window - just have to find my rivet gun before drilling it out. Got a new repro rear bumper, and a rust-free front bumper. Re-spray painted the headlight bezels silver for clarity. Added a new bed bolt kit, so that's locked down now. mud flaps (minor) What else have I done...? New side trim, emblems, fuel injection emblem (my original one on the new repro tailgate!) Lots of odds and ends etc. Still need to do the headlienr, but I'm driving this thing this summer! Already put over 100 miles on it in the last few weeks (I live in the country, so everything is at least 10 miles away ha).
Got some tubby steering, but I haven't yet replaced tie rod ends etc, so likely I'll do that soon-ish. But for now, I'm putting the miles on enjoying it!
