ok so one more small project done. i mounted LEDs on the tips of my whips. heres a little run through.

heres the tips


i used these LEDs and the retainers that came with them

i ran the wires down the side of the antenna and slid 15mm heat shrink tube over it so the wires are hidden



theres a lump where i spliced wires but it still looks better than seeing the wires running down the side



i left a 6" or so pigtail on each and put bullet connectors on the ends for installing and removal



i dont have any lit up pics, they wont be installed for a while

 

Thoughs will be really sweet once you get um on man!

 

Ive done some more work to it kinda, tore out the interior, all that's left is the dash and drivers seat.





and some lovely pics of some rotten cab corners

drivers



passengers



trying to decide if i want to try and clean the carpet or ditch it and replace it



and i found this emblem from a 69-71 Lincoln Continental Mark III that im going to put on the dash



also, this thing takes up a lot more garage than the soobie

 

I think youd better replace that haha

 

the carpets in good shape, its just spent a little too much time on the floor of a farm truck...

 

See what it looks like after a thorough pressure washing

 

Interior takes up a lot less room up against the wall...

 

Take simple green to the carpet! Soak it down let it sit in the sun for a little bit then soak it agin and power wash the snot out of it ! Did that to my bronco and it came out looking brand new!

 

you know its bad for the cb antenna to have other electronics close to it. let alone right on it, your not going to mess anything up but it will mess with your reception and call out.

 

I'll just leave this here for future possible use and current confusion... http://www.x2industries.com/ford-198...l#.Ux8sRpK9KSN
