Here we are so far. I am just setting it in the truck now just to get the lengths of the terminations nice.





I have to change my focus every once in a while so I brazed up a barbed fitting on my radiator hose piping
to supply coolant to the heater.

There is nothing wrong with getting side tracked, it is all for a good cause. I've only done a full wiring harness once before so I know the time and patience needed to do what you are doing and a distraction is a welcome thing at times.

Should the barb be on a angle to stop cavation ?

I honestly have no idea, just wondering

I would think so, and in the same direction as circulation.

I see your train of thought here but cavitation is caused by super low pressure zones.
The flow here may be slightly impeded by the hard angle, but lets keep in mind that
this only feeding a crappy little heater on an unpressurised cooling system.

A few posts back I said I was going to add a really Canadian touch when I had completed the windshield.
But the windshield was just too small to be covering up any of the view through it. So I decided to put it in the back window.

Regina is the capitol of Saskatchewan and where they train our Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and where the Fargo would have been sent to be distributed throughout Saskatchewan.

My Mother made up a book of our family history a while back and farming was our way of life up until the 70ies.

I have a couple grainy photos of photos of the harvest in the early 40ies, with the Fargo hauling grain and our family friends truck helping out. I don't know what brand of truck it is but maybe somebody here could I.D. it.

Did Rugby make trucks ? , I have no idea

Glad you explained the sticker in the window as I never would of guessed what that was about
Mum and Dad went on a trip to Canada many years ago, Mum reckon she was gunna mount a Mounty, Dads eyes would roll when she said this and he would wish her luck with that lol

Canada is a place that has always fascinated me and one which I must go and have a look one day
