Did you sand your top coat with 600?

Okay thank you. I really like how you did the patina. Very nice truck.

Been a little under the weather this past few weeks, so I've been slowly tinkering away....got the posi and gears swapped in. and started on the American autowire classic update kit...what an awesome kit! I fabbed up a bracket to mount the fuse panel to and got most of the cab wired up.

Lookin' great man!
I'm finishing up with the exact same Classic Update kit in mine at the moment as well. Really is a fun kit to work with, pretty much bombproof. Only thing I haven't found included is a circuit for the electric choke - fused ignition circuit but not a big deal to work through.
