My cab/fenders are sanded and primed...then I need the bed sanded and prepped. already got all the lights. will be getting the front pieces soon.

What bumpers do people recommend? any part numbers or pics?

Once I get that stuff, maybe 2 weekends of turning wrenches and this thig will be ready to test drive... my deadline is September 5th, so I got's to work hard keep me motivated!!
You ADD too? Yeah I don't have a bad case of it but yeah I'll do one thing one moment and then do something different the next lol you'll be jammed back and a rolling no doubt! I have faith in you my bother!

It just depends on your preference man, some people use sport bumpers, or roll pans, just depends on the look you want.

How about you push that deadline to September 15th, it's my birthday! So as a birthday present you could conviently have it done haha no I have faith in you man you can do it, you've been faithful to work on the truck when you have parts, and weather permits! You can and will have it done by September 5th!!!

Yeah I am curious how that rear brake line is going to fit. The one I ordered could have been longer but it was made by a different company.

I have been thinking the same thing for the last few days. I figured he would post up his truck out of nowhere about half put together already.

Re: My new project 86 Silverado

Hey guys!

Had to make an unexpected 1000 mile trip to get my Dad, he is here for a few weeks/months. He'll be helping me work on my truck in-between fly fishing

Have lots of pics to post of all the parts I got in...
All is well, just a little delayed, but that's OK. Still plan on being done by years end!

stay tuned, lot's of work in the next week or so.
