Default Truck is finished

Drove the truck arround the block today finally. Didnt take it far because rain is iminent all day today and i still have a hole in the windshield. Just a very minor bit of odds and ends to straighten out before its back to 100%.

yea...that was actually an easy one. The starter was getting a hell of a lot of load on it because the batt wasnt charged fulley and having a hard time turning the motor over, so it was melting the straps. I was having issues with that before so i just added another grounding strap ontop of charging it so i never have another issue.
