Smile my 1972 c10 introduction and custom rear upper shock mount crossmember

So it has been roughly 3 years that I have been restoring my dads 1972 chevrolet c10 stepside shortbox. It has been a long journey to get where I am now but I still have a long way to go. I have rebuilt the inline 250 see link for first startup video ----> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shTKMdJTJsU
the muncie sm465 has been taken apart clean and put back together was in great shape. The cab has been rebuilt and my latest focus has been on the frame.
As soon as the complete tear down finished and the cab rebuild was near being completed I sandblasted the frame and primed it with amazing zinc enriched primer and then coated the areas that didn't need any work with black epoxy paint. The frame work is coming along great, frame rails have been replaced, and my most recent success story is how great my completely custom made form scratch rear upper shock cross member came out. So without further ado the cross member.
PS: If fair amount of interest is shown in this build I will keep you guys posted with much more updates as I have pictures of almost everything I have done Thanks...
ENJOY
