My 62 build thread
I bought this truck thinking that I would have it done in 2-3 years. Then life happens and 5 or 6 years have gone by. I was not good at documenting as I went along so here are some pictures of the progress to date. Still some small details to go but it is now very close to being on the road.

Re: My 62 build thread
The air bags that the PO installed kept giving me problems so new springs were installed along with a new front sway bar.

Next is the power steering lines and it will be ready for mufflers and road ready.

Re: My 62 build thread
A nice truck, a lot looks familiar to me, such a nice Gauge Cluster would also look good on me.

Re: My 62 build thread
I got the hood back on today. A new floor mat should arrive today. Still a few small details to finish up. I hope to have the mufflers installed soon.

Re: My 62 build thread
I replaced the floor mats and thought I would cover the back wall to cover up the sound deadener and get the seat installed. I also replaced the door seals. I read the posts about the Honda door seals fitting better after I fought with the seals I got from another vendor. Now I need to change them so the doors will close easier.
