Thanks!!! Well at least the interior will be nice and clutter free.

I got one seat brace welded in and the trans hump. Then a bracket made to mount the dash controller box... Its coming along slow!

Kicking around a extension on the bottom of the dash.... Grrr! Sub box started and started thinning wires out of the engine harness. Moving wires, shortening wire. Fun stuff!

Cab vent tucked behind sub box.
Drive by wire computer mounted under electrical box.
All of the rust work is also done! Inner cab corners in, steps totally welded. The only welding left is to hang the doors, and finish fitting the outter cab corners.

I started making a fresh air duct to the vintage air box. Its a small exhaust cut out motor. It will be wired so when the defrost comes on, it opens.
