Re: New 64 Stepper Project
It sure looks nice out in the daylight. I know what you mean about so many little things to finish up at this stage.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
Truck is looking good Master Chief!
My son is up at the RTC for training to be a MR. Lots of holds and waiting because of COVID, he is so ready for his first assignment.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
Any obvious 'Uh-Oh' from the 1st driveway testing?

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
Went to Graves Custom Exhaust here in the Waco area yesterday and got it done. 2.25" pipes, resonators and Walker SoundFX mufflers. Could have done without the resonators maybe, pretty quiet. On a positive note the radio now sounds great.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
Took my seat frame material, foam etc down to Ed's Upholstery here in Waco.
Fabed up some front license brackets and had them powder-coated right here in China Spring. Pic makes em look straight, they're not. They're leaned back.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
I guessing you went with the "antique auto" for the registration? I am trying to decide on how I want to register mine...

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
Got the windshield installed at Freddy's Glass in Waco. I guess the third windshield was a charm.
![]() Rear glass done also.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
The glass looks great. Did I miss something on "the 3rd time's a charm" comment. I'm very close to having my front and rear glass installed and you've got me scared.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
Took it to the upholstery shop in Waco to get the carpet, back wall and kick panels done.
Been waiting on wheels for two months.

Re: New 64 Stepper Project
Got the truck home, looks okay. Re-adjusting the throttle cable length now. Then I'll put in the seat.
Drivers door won't close all the way due to the press on door seals, may have to grease it up in a couple places and play with it to see if I can get it to sit right.
