Rusty,
Your truck is going to be beautiful. Love the two tone paint! I've made progress on mine, with the engine/transmission/transfer case all installed. Transmission is hooked up and I am about start installing the ECM and wiring.

I have a question. What did you use for exhaust manifolds? I saw Larry's recommendation to use 70's era big block manifolds. I haven't been able to find any so I tried a pair of new supposedly factory spec reproductions ( made in China). They are poorly made and don't come close to fitting. Now I'm stumped. Any ideas?
