Re: Project Longhorn

Sorry for not updating in so long. Not a whole lot of progress since summer. I have the passengers floor done and am working on getting the cab completely done. That seems to be the bulk of the work that needs to be done. I see if i can get more pictures soon. Long drawn out process
