Firewall is looking good.

So is the floor going to be smooth then?

Floor will be smooth. I screwed up when I cut the inside bed panel for the wheels. I made them a little to big so I decided to build my own fenders.

I don't want to offend you by saying this but, I wish I could screw up like you and end up with those results. I'm just saying.

Really nice work.

Thanks man. I just wish I could have made the rear fenders smaller. But live and learn. The bed will be red rhino liner to match the inside. So I am sure it will look good. Guess we will see

New to the Site and have looked at your builds over the past couple days, VERY impressive what you can do with these amazing trucks. I am currently in the process of shaving the firewall on my 68 and like what you have done with yours. Hope to see that thing finished soon and roaming the SAC streets

Do you think the 4 link dropmember would work with your rims? What is the length of your rear from flange to flange? I have the 4 link dm coming but I LOVE the way your rims look. I wish my project was going as quick as yours is. Are you sure your talents arent being wasted on teeth?

You would have to ask nate but I am sure 4 link would work. I have 2.75 inches between the bag mount back of the wheel. As far as teeth think the trucks look nice you should see my pts teeth.:lol:

Welcome to the board Mario. I could not have done this project with out Mario . He knocked out the fire wall with hinges in a week. That is fast. He also has pointed me in the right direction when I am stuck or dead wrong on an idea. He is 100 times the builder I am and I am very lucky he and his dad have helped me. Anyone in nor cal that wants a truck built should have Mario do it. Of course he is so buisy you maybe waiting a while. Thanks brother

Your ideas are great! This is the same truck I would build if it were for myself!.....A whole lot of wheel.......a whole lot of power........and pounded on the ground! while keeping things a little understated, simple and clean!
