Taking a drive up to Nashville from your place would be a awesome ride. You guys have some great scenery to drive thru. I hope someday I can make it back down there and take more time.

Most definitely gorgeous paint and great workmanship throughout.

The truck is looking great. Glad to see that Molly is still around. I sure miss my lab.

Molly's ride looks clean. Impala?

'67 Chevelle. Eric can chime on it, but it was his folks' car. It is super clean and super sharp and super original. Marina blue on blue.

Chevelle, Malibu, 283, 3 speed on column. It was my mom’s birthday present in ‘67. Brought me home when I was born, my brother and I drove it in high school, and my daily driver now.

Amazing! Good on y’all for keeping it in the family.

Big week...

First Eric got the bed finished up. Looks so good.

**IronCanine** · Yesterday, 07:29 PM

...more to this story...hang on. Trying to crank it out before holiday party. Didn't make it. More posts later tonight.

**IronCanine** · Yesterday, 10:36 PM

Ok...sorry guests arrived early. Over now, let's keep going.

So with all the major paint/polish done, we turned to getting things ready to marry up. Couple of minor checklist items and then we got the roller loaded up to head to Eric's and Eric got the bed off the rotisserie and the cab back on.

**IronCanine** · Yesterday, 10:41 PM

Rotisserie made it high enough that we didn't even have to remove the shifter.

**IronCanine** · Yesterday, 10:45 PM

And now the cab is finally married up. Pretty exciting day for us really. Now we can focus up on final assembly. A few things left to hunt yet...but glass arrived today, so that fight is forthcoming. May not be super soon though because Precision seems like they're gonna be a little slow on delivery. Ordered rubber the same time I ordered the date coded glass (and you see which one arrived first).

Merry Christmas everyone. I hope it's a good one. Already pretty darn good here.

Coming along nicely! I love the blue.
Keep up the momentum!
