I have finally started this truck. Put 12 inch front & rear springs under it for mock up. Got them back out to do some spring hanger mods. Got cab, engine, ect. off frame. I'll move hangers around next week. Picking up steel tomorrow for a cross member i'm building. Will post pictures next week.

A few things have changed in my life since last postings. I am now a high school shop teacher @ high school I graduated from many years ago. I have this truck at school. Students are loving the project. But thinking about it I never had a project like this when I took auto shop. They are a great bunch of kids that are eager to learn and do.
