Great job! looks great!
it may be in here and i just missed it, but where did you get the back windows? I have been really thinking about making a extended cab and I'm still in the thought process

Re: project "WILD THING"
 
The windows are out of a dodge club cab, but they have been split apart and flattened out.(the dodge has a slight curve to them) The openings have also been made about 2" taller and 2" wider than the dodge. Hope this helps. Ill try to post some pics later for you.

now I want to build one! I have never been a fan of extended cab builds until this one. Excellent job!

Not sure what the material is called, but it was like a real wide role of masking tape. The graphics are all hand drawn then cut out by hand.

Trying to get back on the truck AGAIN. It is amazing how life always seems to get in the way of projects.

So I loaded the truck on a trailer and took it to a car show this past weekend to get a little motivation and ended up winning 2 awards! Now that's motivating enough for me. Maybe I stay working on it this time.

I'm still chipping away at it, I hope to complete this in the next few months. Two little things called time and money always seem to get in the way.

time for update..

Re: project "WILD THING"
 
Well I wished I could say that this truck was all done and on the road, but as I have said before life always seems to get in the way. I have spent the last year finishing my basement so the kids could have a hang out place with their friends and there fore nothing seemed to get done on the truck. I also started building a 72 blazer with my 16 year old son over the last couple of months, hopefully it doesn't take as long as my build has. Hopefully I will be updating my build over the next few months as the cold months are coming and I will spend more time in the garage.

Time sure does fly by, I've spent the last year working on my boys 72 blazer build. Maybe this winter I will get back to my truck.

Well its been tucked in the garage for 3 more years so I figured I better get it out and wash the dust off. Did more work in the last 2 weeks than I did the last 3 years. It might finally be time to get this one finished up.

Subbed into this. Can't wait to see you get across the "finish line." Beautiful build.

Glad to see you are back at it. After seeing it person I can say your skill level is top-notch and the truck is amazing. How is the Blazer is it finished?

Thanks I appreciate that Craig. The Blazer is on hold right now until I finish my truck. Also been working on a 1971 Chevelle that my son bought.
