All she says to me is "as long as the bills are paid I don't care, I just want you to be happy". I couldnt ask for anymore.

Thanks Adam, I just have to figure out what I want to do with the my wheels. I keep thinking just sell them and buy some Billet wheels that will fit up under those fenders with no mods to the bedsides. After the honeymoon I will figure it out.

Very nice progress on the cab. Congras on the bed too. I love the steppers almost as much as the fleets. Keep the pics coming.

Thanks Mike, i decided I wanted to be a little different with this one. It seems everybody takes off the Step Bed for a Fleet so I went the opposite direction I wouldn't have done it if my fleetside was in good shape but since I had to buy a new bed anyway i figured why not. I love the look of Steppers, especially bagged steppers . I'll get back on it after the Honeymoon.

My SWB Steps and Braces I purchased off of 68 SHORT-STEP'N came in today. They look awesome and are very solid. Once I blast and paint them they will look brand new. Thanks again Jimmy.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB

Thats the truth. I had a heck of a time finding a step brace for my truck and one of the guys on the board gave me one, only had to pay for shipping.

I love this place.
