I haven't mounted the rack yet. I think you would have to notch the frame either way but I am not certain.

daverod · 05-24-2010, 10:27 AM

Way cool

dv8customs · 06-05-2010, 04:38 PM

Small update today, did a little mud work on passenger door and cut down the frame on the wing window so that it would fit again.

draggin86 · 06-05-2010, 05:25 PM

wow man its crazy to see what you started with no to long ago and where you are now! congrats and please keep up all the good work dude!

*BGRAFX* · 06-15-2010, 04:09 PM

Hey man how's the truck coming along? I'm looking for tailgate ideas and like your thinking!

dv8customs · 06-19-2010, 09:34 PM

Gave up on body work for now and went ahead and got my rack mounted. It's just temporarily mounted for now so that when I move it around I don't have to fight the wheels and can actually steer the thing. Hope to squeeze in enough time tomorrow to connect the steering shaft.

justpball · 06-20-2010, 11:08 AM

Looks great!

ratty 46 · 06-20-2010, 04:08 PM

After a little bit of grinding it fits. It's close but it fits.

texastruckjunky · 06-20-2010, 06:55 PM

It looks really good. But are you sure it won't get in the way of the engine mount? Looks like it's going to be close. Your truck is coming along really nice.

dv8customs · 06-20-2010, 07:59 PM

I'm not sure at all. Once I get the motor in I will know for sure. But for now it will be a ton easier when I need to move it around.

Driveway Dreams · 06-26-2010, 12:00 AM

Lookin' good man! What kind of time line goals do you have for now? Anything at all?

No goal really. My first kid is due in about two weeks so right now I am going to get it in primer again and then it will be down for a while.

VA72C10 · 06-26-2010, 12:20 AM

Looking good man!

ccreddell · 06-28-2010, 01:58 AM

Thanks guys. My body work isn't finished yet but I am getting the whole thing in primer again for a show in Sept.

dv8customs · 07-10-2010, 07:43 PM

Finally started suiciding my driver side door today and got rained out. Hopefully the rain will clear up and I can finish it tomorrow.

The_BullDog · 07-15-2010, 10:56 PM

congrats on the baby. boy or girl? eather way don't you think its about time you start teaching the kid to work on trucks? my six yr old loves to just turn nuts and bolts and hand me wrenches. who cares if they are the wrong ones she is having fun.

really interested on how the R&P and the engine fit is going to work out.
