You are moving along. I'm not sure of your schedule, but I have a break (from work) after next Tuesday. I'm not pushing at all, just letting you know my schedule. You can tell me when things will be ready.

Heck, the most difficult schedule to work around is going to be the weather!

Dave.

Thanks Dave. I think the front clip will be done and ready to go. Need to buff the fenders and hood again and could possibly put it all togather but hauling it will be the issue as far as how to without damage. We will figure it out. By next week might have the cab done also we will just see...

I'm at the polishing stage now except for the doors that need some attention inside but that's easy. Thanks for the compliment...

Oh, he does love it.

Black battery box is fine, there will be black contrast elsewhere.

So, hood, fenders and nose are done.

Wet floor, dust control?

Dave.

If you only new.... I've had a lot of small issues, some self inflicted some Mother Nature... It's coming togather though. Thanks man!

Doors are off getting sanded now so I can prime and repaint them. Had some odd lifting issues! No big deal just instead of being close to done, I have about 10 more hours of labor.

Thanks man. Doubt I will make that show though. My wife probably won't feel like traveling...

Thank you very much.
I have to polish the fenders and they will be ready to go. That means the front clip will be done! Cab/doors are the only thing left...

Troy, whew, off for a few days. Yeah, I can come pick up some stuff to get it out of your way, settle up and all. Not sure which day, though. Any preferences on your end?

Dave.
