Re: My 68 swb build.
I stopped by the upholstery shop to see the status of the interior pieces. Not done and its ok cause I'm not in a big hurry for them and he knows it. And plus I'd rather him tale his time. We had agreed on black all over but he said he wants to mix in the pearlwhite and blue with black. I'm ok with it as long as everything matches. I'm surprised to see what he comes up with. I will post pics when I get them.

Re: My 68 swb build.
hes already started wet sanding the fenders so theres no shine on them...by the way theres 5 coats of clear...and on the hood he will sand again and apply 2 more coats because of heat...wait til he backsprays the cab with bedliner and under the hood...

Re: My 68 swb build.
Looks AWESOME!! I am totally envious, can't wait to be at this stage. Going to look at my third truck to get parts off of tomorrow. I'm 3.5 hours away, but your more than welcome to use one of my trailers from what I've learned from watching your build.

Re: My 68 swb build.
Chris! The truck parts look great! Are you still going to use the grille I gave you? I'm glad it went to a good home. The cab is still sitting in my garage waiting. I have changed my game plan, I bought another frame and a long stepside bed. I'm driving my truck everyday now because I'm building another motorcycle right now.
So when do you think you'll have the truck finished? looks like you're making really good progress. Let me know when the grand unveiling is, i'll make the trip up North.

Looks great. Glad the painter was on the ball. I can't wait to see it all back together on the frame.
