Re: Beth's tribute truck.
I got the 4L65E and NP205 transfer case back today rebuilt and ready to install. My plan is to get that done this week.

Re: Beth's tribute truck.
I must say I feel my age. Grant Bolt came over yesterday feeling like the energizer bunny and we got a lot done on Beth's tribute truck. We moved a few cabs around to make room, bolted the engine to the transmission / transfer case assembly and started prepping the chassis for the engine, transmission and transfer case.

Even if you can get a dial tone, you might wait a while for the Operator...

Re: Beth's tribute truck.
More parts from the big brown truck. Billet specialties valve covers, Fitech intake system with computer and various parts to relocate the coils and etc. Started fitting the new bed floor to work with the Boyde tank. Need to modify for a behind the side marker filler. Slow steady progress.

Re: Beth's tribute truck.
Progress seem pretty slow, but I am moving forward. FedEx has lost the one off custom bumper for Beth's tribute truck. I am pissed beyond words! It was done, it was chrome plated along with a NP205 transfer case shifter. Just about $3500.00 lost in one box! Anyway moving forward I set the cab on and bed floor to figure out if there were any modifications that are going to have to be made. There is a couple but I feel pretty fortunate. It could have been worse. Anyway here are some pictures.
