Thanks! No, looking back I wish I had. I'm not detail oriented enough to take tons of pics and keep up with them.

Very nice truck. You should be proud.

I know what you mean about being detail oriented to take all the pics you should. PITA but really cool to once in a while go back through your thread from start to finish. Kinda relive if you will all the different stages that you and your truck went through. I'm building a 68 (meet Homer) and it is truly a PITA to stop and take pics and then post em up and type along with em. Really worthwhile though. Next time. Believe me, there will be a next time.
I have a 75 year old good friend who says "there's no cure for it. once you are a hot rodder, even if you take a break, there's always another one in the future till they put you in the ground".

Thanks!

I'll have to take some new pics. The ones I have are before I redid the dash pad and the gauge bezel.

Even better. Then we can see before & after, those are the best.

Re: My square
Here's an old pic of the interior. I've since replaced the door panels and dash pad and added Vintage Air. Also have redone the gauges in the dash bezel.

I disassembled the control arms last weekend. Working on it a few minutes at a time. POR15 on the frame this weekend. Thanks for keeping me motivated.
