Re: "the graduate"

Looking good. Question: How much massaging did you have on all the new metal to get it to fit?

Keep up the good work.

Quite a bit and still massaging .....If you can use your original parts I highly suggest it I have had to do a lot of cut, weld and grind.

Re: "the graduate"

Very nice progress. I have had to do some massaging on my GM panels too. It seems the gaps weren't exactly the same on the panels back in the 60s-70s.

Keep the pictures coming.

Re: "the graduate"

Amazing build and pinstripe art!

Also it was nice meeting you at the Home Depot car show. It's cool to meet folks from the forum. As soon as I saw your truck I told my son I thought I had seen it on here.
