Am I nuts? 1940 Plymouth Commercial Car (Truck)

Thanks for your interest and the questions. We primarily moved the cab back so that the front tires would line up with the opening in the 40 fenders. We then moved the engine back to fit the firewall and give us enough room for the radiator, although I did have to put the radiator ahead of the yoke instead of behind it.

Originally, I went with the A body heater box because I had a few laying around and they are a nice compact unit. However, as this is my Wife's truck, she wanted A/C for when we cruise to warmer climates. The A/C unit from the Dakota is pretty big and might interfere with the rather small dash. Plus it has extra hoses for door window defog, side vents etc and I thought the Vintage Air unit is much smaller and should be plenty for the small cab of the truck. I also wanted to keep the center cowl pop up vent functional and the Dakota box was going to be in the way.

I really have enjoyed getting in the truck and starting it with just one turn of the key. The EFI is such an improvement on a vehicle that sits for a while. Although I have not had it on the "open road" yet since my next project is front glass, I have driven it around the farm and it really feels nice.
