Thanks dfwright, here are a couple pics of the cab before paint. Pick up the new Truckin' Magazine January 8th for our bare metal feature of Project Snakebit!

Awesome work as usual!

Following this build and it's inspiring. I've got a 50 that's going to be in the shop soon. I saw you were running a 9" rear but did you consider any other options? I've read a lot about using Camaro and Explorer rears. Just wondering what your opinion would be.

Is the last picture from a different truck?

MoreLoveThanMoney · 01-23-2013, 12:15 PM

Looks like you have done a fewe of these trucks. Any chance you have a black patina or rust colored drivers fender? Need one for my 50 model

I don't have one right now, but when I run across one I'll let you know. We run out west quite often so I'll look around.

Nsanehotrodz · 02-05-2013, 08:41 PM

After the second round of clear. Tomorrow we'll start wetsanding the cab and doors and start the reassembly next week.

**Dieselwrencher** · 01-23-2013, 09:51 PM

The frame looks sweet! Those air bags look familiar........... Semi cab/sleeper air bag or maybe an air ride seat air bag?

Looking great! Hope to see more pictures once the doors are on. I've been thinking about shaving the drip rails on my project, but I can't find good quality pictures of other trucks with the same modification.

Awesome building skills!

The aftermarket outer cowl panels need a little work for the hood to clear. The holes are still there for the hood hinges. Thanks
