The shifter I wanted to appear almost as original.I decided to try an American Shifter. So far so good. Well made and came with plenty of parts.It is a dual action also .Instead of a push down center button you just lever it to the side a bit to shift .

Re: The Snortin' bull
Love the GMC grille! The shifter looks good to. You are making a lot of progress.

It's been month's since inner fender's have been on.Sorry the heat and a bit of humidity mess'n with camera some of the pic's appear foggy. In the end a derelict looking triuck is the look.

Got the inner fender's back in.These have been trimmed to fit the frt modded frame and aligned to core support. Set bed gap tight with a little clearance as stock frame is gone and no flex is going to occur.I think this look's good. Even though the truck is to look like a derelict old truck on the side of the road in the end trying to get the panel's looking good and fitted.
