project rebuild

I posted a couple of months ago that I was getting started back on the truck. Well I've gotten a little further. The new suspension is pretty much done and the truck is sitting good. I just got a motor to use for mock up, and I can finish the other pieces that will be mounting to the frame (airtank, valves, etc.) A list of what has been done:

Raised Crossmember 2"
Rack and Pinion Steering
Triangulated 4-Link
New Wheels and Tires - Wheel Vintiques Smoothies

I'm attaching a shot of before, to bring back some memories, and some current pictures.

Re: project rebuild

Need to get the steering column mounted properly. There is not much room under the dash with the brake setup.
