I'm picking up $600 in mostly interior parts from BROTHERS TRUCKS when I head out to Cali next week. After that it's just minor body work, paint and wheels. I'll try to find some more recent pics.

Glad to hear that is still with us, that is the important part. I thought mine would only be down for its face lift about 6 months to a year. That was in November of 2002. Well it's at least going together, I think

Be good to see some newer picts of yours too.

Not too hard to understand. I don't think it's ugly at all. It looks good enough as it is to sit in the driveway, and as long as is runs, it's still a good ol' truck.

After years of driving old Chevys WAY worse than yours I finally poured a mess of $$$$$$$$ into mine and it's STILL not really finished. I guess that's why it's such a great hobby - it's never REALLY finished. It seems there's always something more to do.
