Re: my 65 fleetside build
just wanted to thank everyone for thier support through this very trying time,my sister passed away sunday evening,just a little bit about her. she was a organ donor and as of now her liver and kidneys have already helped someone and she would have liked that, she started a food ministry at her church and was always helping someone she will be missed by alot of people. she left behind two girls and her husband of 33 years, so please keep them in your prayers. here is a picture of her, she was a very beautiful lady,and not just on the outside.

Re: my 65 fleetside build
WOW, your cab looks really good! Yours is in a lot better shape than mine was in when I started. You will be painting that thing in no time and be ready for the charlotte auto fair. I like your cab lift, I may have to make me one of those. Great job, keep it up.

Re: my 65 fleetside build
WOW, you get more done in 1 day than I do in like a month, LOL. Did you completely smooth the rockers? I cant even see where they are connected to the truck at. Your work is outstanding!!! I had to make a 3x3 patch for the bottom backside of the cab where the cab corner wasnt big enough. I got that welded in and finish. I hope im done with the metal work now, Just got to get the bodywork done now. Wish you were closer so we could knock that out in a few hours. Great Job and loving all the pics!!
