So after a wet week today didn't seem good morning for cars and coffee as was very damp and cloudy early.figured I'd get some jobbies done new hinges for dodge tailgate as early trucks had smaller hinges which wouldn't fit, and fit the mirrors that extend for hauling as one of mine was broken and could not locate any parts to replace motor inside.
All going well and passenger side fixed all problems with old so now onto driverside.its quite a job but eventually it went together ,plug in wires and now passenger not working either

Chased tail only to find fuse blown after lot of diagnosing and hooking wires to original turns out the motor is shorting ...informed ebay and for time being i can set it manually .quality control is not there anymore ...several hours wasted fiddling and I'm going to have to change it again...seems this is par for course now......have to check everything off car before taking apart to save time and frustration

Relaxing finally at mopar fall fling in Woodley park .so as we got off freeway down here in vannuys we started to here a wooshing which was the water steaming .got in park and deposited radiators contents on parking lot .after it cooled we topped up and went in ...noticed a bolt missing from header .they typically go into the water jacket ....so thought we knew problem after buying bolt in swap meet the truth was revealed there is a freeze plug behind the exhaust manifold which had failed trip to autozone and some metal putty to bodge and get us home ...waiting for it to harden ...then a test and if it fails I have to go with ian to pick up truck and trailer to tow her home ..
Fingers crossed..
