    Hello everyone.
    I've been lurking around this site for a few months and finally decided to sign up.
    I use to own a '65 G van... It was fun and I miss it.
    I currently own a '62 Greenbrier and a '64 Rampside.
    I'm looking forward to getting to know some of you.

    My newly rebuilt 164ci, 110hp engine. Kept the generator instead of upgrading to an alternator to be OG.

    Faulty fuel pump has been replaced and I have also added new 8mm Taylor wires since picture was taken.

    First trip to the gas station in almost a year.

    Yep... time to drop the tank and see why the sending unit is only reading 1/2 when full.

    I was thinking it needs a black top on the fuel pump now.
