the only chnage I made was teh style of brake light switch. The original had bullet connectors and i had an english car style one with the screw type connectors and went with that. Even the Voltage regulator has the "Forward" Era logo on it. had to change the heater hoses and the original vacuum hoses were all hardened. Cant wait to start driving it. Still waiting for the bed parts to come from the body shop......... The engine paint is as close to the original as I could find. it is Hammerite Hammered Bronze. slightly less bronzy than the original but looks nice.
