Wow! Nice job on the paint Clemson71. Did you paint it yourself? It looks great. Now hurry up and get it finished! (but don't scratch the paint).

Re: my build

well now that it comes to the interior my dad wants to go all stock? we havent done nothing on this truck stock and now he wants to do it? he refuses to put a cd player in it even in the glove box or under the seat or anywhere. he wants to put the stock am radio in it the stock steering wheel the stock gauges in it everything stock...well im going to have to get a job soon because if hes goin to out what he wants in it if he pays for it even if im goin to be driving it. I dont blame him for doing it the way he wants it because hes paying for it, but if i spend my own money he wont care what i do with it.
but anyways we went and painted the other door today and steering colum today: here they are



and heres one more of the cab

Re: my build

Everything looks great! Now lets get it back together.
I think it's great that you and your dad are doing this together. It may not be that big of a deal to you right now, but if and when you have kids, it will be a big deal to you then. I have a 10 year old and 2 step sons that I've been able to work on vehicles with some and it's my way of bonding with them. I pray that my 10 year old will take an interest in these trucks in a few more years, it looks promising so far.
Keep up the good work!

Re: my build

Read the back of the note they left. I believe you can sign the back of it and they should leave it.

Also... your truck looks freakin killer.

I'd get that garage roof fixed though, your truck got all wet
