Yep some times the hardest part is to remember to keep it simple!

I plan well? I think your woirk on the burb/Tahoe is way past what I have planned for this build! But wait for my 2WD Blazer to get started

Looks good but I think the Chop went about 1/2" or so too much for me.

Awesome

Here is the weekends work! Not bad for part of a day and it all lines up very nice. Next weekend I will finish the rear cab body line change and get the top tacked in place so I can cut off the quarter panels and send it out for blasting.

The owner came by today with some needed parts and for a look. I think he is pleased with the progress so far and is looking forward to more progress. What he brought by today was the core support and hardware, tailgate and the rebuild kit for the door hinges. Now I can rebuild the hinges to assure that everything will end up how I want after teh cab is welded in place. I will also double check the front fenders, core suport for door gaps and alignments. Then I will tear it down, cut out the rusted areas and send it off to blasting. I hope to have it blasted and back in the shop in about a month for all the new sheet metal to start finding its home for good.
