Re: 67 SWB First Build

Scurry67, I have been reading up on your build and really like how it is coming out. Great work! I was seriously thinking of doing the dash pad elimination like you did but didn't. Now I kinda wish I did. Very impressive!!

I am hoping to start working on the frame soon so in the spring I can get the cab on the frame. I can't wait to finish my '68 stepside, it will be my daily driver and show truck.

Much appreciated. I’m very satisfied with the color selection. Can’t wait to get it in the actual daylight.

Thanks for the compliment. I think it’ll be a nice and subtle touch to the interior. It looks like you’re moving right along on your build too! Enjoying the read.

Re: 67 SWB First Build

Not much to report for progress, and likely won’t be for atleast a few months. Baby #2 arrived before Christmas, a healthy baby girl! Until then, it’ll have to be quick trips just to gaze and living vicariously through everyone else’s builds.

Re: 67 SWB First Build

Those 2 babies will give you so much more of a return on your investment than your super cool pick up truck. Congratulations on the healthy beautiful girl!
