Well, to be honest with you, i didn't take any pics when we did that. but what we did was took two sets of hasps, using the loops, screwing one in on the side of the bed itself, and the other on the tailgate, dropped bolts down through them. planned on a TAILGATE HANDLE RELOCATOR
kit , just hadn't got around to it yet. thanks to the gentelman for his remarks on giving me a break.

but if you need pics look HERE

dennis with people like you and others encouragement it does make it easier to deal with. and i appreciate your kind words more than you'll ever know. now get out in the garage, and get that motor souped up so you can beat eric's butt.

Re: "G&S project"

Man, you wouldn't believe the tools that my stepdad had. Got the kitchen and the living room full of 31 gallon tubs of assorted tools. Mostly electronic stuff. He was a retired television repairman. Worked for NASA in the mid-60's. So we'll have plenty of stuff to work with now. So next weekend we'll probably start working back on the truck again, as we have gotten everything sorted in his estate. Like I said before, the cowl hood looks good on the etch-a-sketch

Re: "G&S project"

Well, we start on the cowl hood fabrication Saturday. Post some pics then. I'm sure it won't be completed. The welder we had had to go back to it's owner for a short period. So we'll just get everything cut and mocked up. Wish me luck.

Re: "G&S project"

Got a new addition to the family. A 1993 Cadillac DeVille. Belonged to my stepdad. We'll get some pics up the next day or so. He didn't drive it enough to keep the battery fully charged. Gotta get a good battery for it. It's white on blue interior, 4 door. Nice looking car.

I would like to thank Ken {N2TRUX} for changing the title of our build. This has made our whole family very happy.

Thanks for reading.

Re: "G&S project"

oh yeah the truck is about 25 miles away from where we are now in a garage, so we haven't worked on it in the last 2 weekends. needless to say for personal reasons. so pics will come.

Re: "G&S project"

I just joined this past week and have been reading your progress on your build. I wanted to let you know there is one more person praying for you and family. You definately inspire me with the build I just started. I too am confined to the O'l driveway for all of my work. I have the tools, experience, but just not the space. I hope to post some pics of my build soon. I look forward to more from you.

Well be sure to stop by and let me know when you get your build started. Love reading and watching progress from others, maybe steal a couple of ideas. Lol. And thank you for the prayers, sir. It will be a little while before we get any pics up of the truck. Since we moved it, it's just on the weekends that we can work on it. And once again, thank you.
