So I figured it out today and got her fired up! First time she has ran in probably ten years. :)I’m happy as can be. The ignition has something loose inside the column. I hit the steering column a couple times and the starter started clicking again. I checked with a tester at the battery terminal and had power and checked at the terminal from ignition and that had power. So I started checking grounds. Couldn’t find one the the engine. Really all I could find besides headlights and hood was the battery to the frame. So I added a ground to the engine and she fired right up. Took a couple sprays of starter fluid but she started idling fine. Still has some old gas in it. Fairly certain the tanks are about empty so I might throw in a can of Seafoam and new gas and see where she goes from there. Took the shell off too. Hated it. Wish I could add a video, is that possible? I’m brand new to this forum.
Well, now your username matches the truck! Good job! She sparks now :happy107:

Let the meds clear from my brain, and took the truck out for a cruise. Turns out that a bench seat is really comfy to slide in and out of after knee surgery.

The streets were quiet and empty this morning- always wanted to get a picture in front of the old city hall building, it was on my list. I also cruised over to the Chevy dealership to get a picture there too, but I guess business is too good right now, couldn’t even get close to the sign.

After that, I cruised through all the O’Reillys to see if they had the holiday M2 squarebody release, no one had any. After that, I went back to Walmart to see if they had that 1:24 M2 for @TotalyHucked but no dice there either. Oh, well- beautiful morning for a drive and I can’t get over how nice and drivable my truck is nowadays.
