Man it's been a long time since i've checked in. I am on the fence about selling the crew just lack of time and interest.

You won't have a lack of interested buyers if you decide to sell both of them that's for sure.

this is an update! I pulled this door of almost a year ago and today its half done the inner door is bodyworked and in primer. Tomorrow hope to finish the other side. I am happy with the finished door looks pretty factory. I did forget one thing but im going to keep that to myself unless one of you guys can spot it.

I will take a wild guess and say it's missing a second water weep hole at the bottom of the door?
It looks great though man nice job.
I hope you finish the truck it will be something you can be proud of when you are done.

Well I spent all day saturday sanding b pillar and 4th door opening getting it ready for primer. I also worked on the drip rail above 4th door I was never happy with it so I fixed it. I woke up early this morning to beat the heat and sprayed a few coats of epoxy on it. This is area is finally finished and Im happy with the results.

Every time I check out one of your updates I have the same reaction "WOW" you do some outstanding work, I am impressed.
Have you played with the idea of smoothing the radio and ashtray and installing a double din head unit at all?

thanks, I am a fan of the factory look I think Im going to run the factory am radio with a hidden tunner or somthing like that.

Also this is what I forgot to add to the 4th door, the holes to bolt on the outer door handle on. No big deal just have to stick my arm in the big hole!

I spent the weekend adjusting the 4th door and bodyworking the roof.
I finished the door but not the body work.
I am really happy with all the gaps 1/8 in at the rear of the door and 3/16 between the 2 doors

I love it! I wish had the skills to build one of these. If you ever think about selling, put me at the top of that list.
