WOW it feels so great to get something accomplished ! Just wanted to share with you guys ! Got the rear axle under the frame finally friday night ! I got some more stuff to get done but she is starting to look like a truck again. Instead of a pile of parts ! Anyhow here is a PICTURE Depending on when you check there will be more here soon ! Updates to come ! Thanks for the support everyone !

nice pic what did you use on the frame it almost looks like a dark charcoal and is kind of nice as opposed to the gloss black everyone seems to use ( myself included)

Oh, man... that hammered paint look is so damn cool! Perfect for a truck. Got details on the paint manufacturer? Codes? That is too sweet!

LOL Sure I'll put your truck in line right behind Jenna's 71 and our 69 burb !

It might be 15 -20 years till I get to it. The great things about projects is that they are never hurried ! :p
