Well the water ppump issue has been fixed. They texted me a 6 second video of the motor running.....Couldn't really tell a whole lot except a motor was running...real poor quality.

Of course we have drizzels today so no going to the exhaust and alignment shop today. The plan is for that to happen tomorrow when the weather is supposed to get better and do the drivability test on Friday. They want to put about 100 miles on it to test it out, make sure nothing else is wrong with it.

After that then they will install the interior, button up the stereo and let the paint and body guy have it. He has to paint the rear roll pan, the grille lettering, the side emblems and horn button accents plus any touch ups that are needed then BUFF the entire truck AGAIN.

I have never seen a vehivle that has been buffed this much. The final buffing and cleaning will take about three days or so...........I guess that is faster than I would do it. Claying, buffing and polishing is definitely a slow job if done right, or at least it is when I do it, LOL

I guess they took to heart the last time I saw it and put blue painter tape on places I didn't like, every piece was warranted but they were like WTF, How did you see that?

So basically from what I gather after Friday it SHOULD take a week to finish up, but I am not holding my breath. It is comforting to know that they are working on it steadily and DAILY....... I know I am really anxious to get it but do not want the final product rushed at this point cause now all the pretty stuff gets done and polished up especially with the money I have in this thing.

So the saga continues.........hopefully for only 1 more week.
