got some work done. I'll be using a 89 chevy bed for now I need to use a fleet side to hide frame rails (step side steps would interfere with frame rails), I have a 58 fleetside bed but it's in really bad shape, so I'm going another route at this time
how it sits now

I did score some impala ss wheels I threw on to see how they looked. disregard battery strapped to top of engine, that has been rectified also, got my battery tray mounted in original location
