I'm loving this build. I'm working on a 69 C-20 long step myself.

Thanks for checking out the build, glad to see more of them getting the attention....Jim

I'm building this one for my son. He's only 7, so thankfully I have plenty of time.

Be careful, time has a way of getting away from you. My son and I were going to do a build together when he was 20, he turns 40 this year and we are finally starting a build together for him. He's doing most of the work, I'm just giving fatherly advise.

**oldman3** · 05-24-2011, 08:19 PM

Starting from yesterdays post of epoxy primer on fenders.
Pic 1 After a couple days I sprayed with regular primer(another bad pic, sorry).

Pic 2 Same

Pic 3 All in primer with a light guide coat.

Pic 4 Another view.

**oldman3** · 05-24-2011, 08:22 PM

Pic 1 Removed the right rear cab corner.

Pic 2 Right outer rocker panel removed.

Pic 3 Here's the new patch panel for cab corner.

**oldman3** · 05-24-2011, 08:25 PM

Pic 1 This is what we found on the right front cowl area.

Pic 2 Overall view.

LOVE IT! What were the first seats you test fitted out of? Looks like the 90's Jag console will work out nice, good choice. Details, details, details... this truck has a lot of them, and they are all right on the mark.

Hey Ben, thanks for the kind word, appreciate it. The first seats were out of a Jeep, don't know year or model, sorry....Jim
