After 3 years Betty is DONE!!!

I know I have been a little distant but wanted to show you guys the almost finished product....Here she is. Just hit 1500 miles and I have her on jacks again for a full inspection. A lot of frustrations, throwing tools, saying every bad word in the book and she is on the road...Probably wouldn't be done yet until my wife said we can use it as a limo after our wedding....Nothing beats a fresh build with a just married sign on the back driving about 120miles....Not sure if I was more happy that I got married or if I was finally done after 3+ years working on it and finally driving the truck....(please don't tell the wife)...
