Thanks.
I try and do a little every day. Most of it is just sanding on the cab.
Waiting on more epoxy right now.

They're real bright. The pics don't show the difference between the running and brake light intensity very well.

I agree with the sequential turn signals.
Not sure how I can make it happen though.

Looks great Kim, I thought sequential as soon as I saw the 3 lights too! You might try just getting ahold of an old cougar tail light harness, or the new mustangs all have sequential now too.

Hey Kim, sorry for the delay. Thanks. Can you show one of the ends where it meets the cowl? Can't tell if you welded that as well. Cheers, Jim

damn girl i just checked out 45 pages of your thread, 7 years in the making '' you got patience''

i gotta ask this question you being a chick.... is this all your work or you got a guy helping you??

me myself im soon gonna have a 60' and a 63' in my yard to build one out of, but i dont have the time to really make it nice, i got to get it on the road immediatlly. and then i can customize it,

ive had a car for the wife. but she had a mild stroke, and decided she wasnt going to drive no more. which means '' daddy gets a truck'' im really impressed at what youve done to this old ride,

allthough i just joined this site, i joined it for a reason... i like and prefer old steel..as im sure each member on here does,

sure i could have went and bought me a new truck. but who wants to pop the hood and not see the motor,???

i went to my 60' today and the motor isnt locked down. im sure it's a 235 straight 6. but that time will come when i get it in the yard.

i like the very first posts you made on building the bed and using the fender wells, thats my plan eventually, because my 63' has the bed im gonna use but besides the fenders it's shot,

im gonna have to invest in some metal cutting tools. i have acess to a bad-ass gas powered lincoln welder '' very old school ''

i'll be following this thread for any more post you make.

looks like your damn near the end.

Thanks for the compliments.
I guess my name can confuse some but I am a guy (my parents must of had a sense of humor).
Normal every day life is what keeps it from getting done (raising a teenage boy after getting two other boys into their 30s).
Hope to have it on the road some time next year.

So I got nothing done at work today because of this thread.

I read the whole thing today and had to sign up to tell you how great it looks.

Im in the process of building a 59' fleetside and this definitely helps motivate. someday ill get a round to starting a build thread.

Great job Kim and thanks for keeping me entertained today!
