MY build thread...

Oh yea I forgot that. It was bowed on the bed prior and so I made a cut in the license plate box to bring it back out like it was supposed to be! Shouldve bought new but didn't want to spend money on something to cut it up, lesson learned..

Well I hope so. I still have some issues to deal with on the tailgate but hopefully it won't be bad. I have to come up with $ for my taillights then I can start working on the backend of the bed.

As an update I tore the turn signal cam and wire out to get a new one and that was all I could do in 110* shop last night.

It's been oppressive here as well! If my bud's shop wasn't air conditioned I wouldn't touch my truck until Fall! I applaud you getting anything done in that kind of heat!

I have to try to have this thing mobile by September.

No problem brotha,now if only this heat would just stop for a bit we could actually get the rest of the wiring knocked out.Along w/ everything else lol

[shortbed70]

As soon as those tails show up I don't care if it's 120 I will put them in. I also just scored another $50 so there's another something for the truck!!

Well after alot of rain an a quick trip to LMC in Lenexa I came back after gas with a $450 hole in my wallet! I got a new windshield and cab rubber kit. Oh yea the other few dollars went to steel to finish my tailgate frame so I can move forward on the bed. My wife just got me a new studgun for my birthday. I'll post pics when I get on a computer.
