Re: Pictures (from hot trux),....
Here's a few updated pics. Front fenders are painted and engine/core support wiring and associated parts are going together. Stepside bed work has begun also.

Re: Pictures (from hot trux),....
Ok,... I got a couple pics from Hot Trux tonight so I thought I would share. The idea of making his truck a stepside has been an expensive one. So far,... Jeff purchased two complete beds, one NOS fender (for almost $400), two 1979(?) take off fenders and steps (the red ones, removed in 1979 and stored), one new GM tailgate,... and a couple extra steps found at a local swap meet,... and the bed is finally coming together as "one unit" for mock up prior to paint. . Also purchased was new bed strips and roll pan from Bruce Horkey Wood Products. Original bedsides will be reworked as will the front bed panel from the second bed. Here's a couple of pics. I'll post the bed in paint when it's done.

Re: Pictures (from hot trux),....
Nate,... it probably won't be on the street for a while. Jeff has been hitting it pretty hard,... but still alot to do. The upholstery should be killer.

Re: Pictures (from hot trux),....
That arms turned out real nice. Did Theorbrecke Bros PC them red? Or did Jeff paint them after they arrived?

Re: Pictures (from hot trux),....
A few more pics from my buddy Hot Trux.
Doors are hung with new hardware, gaskets, and outside handles. Front Thorbecke Bros. tubular a-arms are installed. There's just a little more wiring to do before that is finished. Right now, Jeff is fitting the front inner fenders and modifying them for a custom look. Fenders are painted and Jeff just polished the radiator, so it can be installed. I forgot to get a picture of all the bolting. It's all chrome plated. (even the door hinge bolts,... and many bolts you won't see.) Most are chrome button head allen bolts. The detail is incredible.
