Time to put in some work!
I got the grill almost finished.
I'll get better pics this week.
I'm trying to get this truck going soon.

Cargo lamp switch
 
Mike would happen to have a cargo lamp switch laying around? I'm gonna need one for my build, I just can't see me paying $15.00 for a switch that small.....
Thanks!

New progress! It's been busy with my new job and I have been out of town during the week. To say the least, it's difficult. Anyway, I have the truck getting the roof painted, seam sealed, inner and outer rockers, cab corners and lower hinge pockets done. Here's a few pics. He's done all this in a week. He would have been farther along but needed to wait on the hinge pocket repair panels to continue.

Thanks Scott!
I started this as a few month project but it has grown into a pretty decent overall truck. I ordered a big box of stuff for it last week so I'm trying to push the driving weekend to the 4th weekend. Really need it to pull the boat to the lake so I don't have to make 2 trips with the camper and boat. Wish me luck. I only get the weekends to work on it since I'm working out oftown during the week now.

I like the work you've done.

I was just finishing up a post in my tribute build and saw your build pop up. My Dad's name was Cash and it was cool to see your user name.

Looking Good! Keep up the good work! I've got like 100 rolls of that aluminum backed, self adhesive roofing mastic, if you would like a few rolls! cheaper than fat mat or dynamat:lol::lol::lol:

Now, if only the painter would get with the program, I could get my truck back together!!!maybe this week........:cuss::cuss:

you know that bracket for under the steering column I got from you a while back? the one with the Oval hole in it? well, I've lost that sucker again!!!:banghead::banghead::banghead: wouldn't happen to have another laying around would you?:dohh:
Let me know!
