looking good.i know what you have went through doing this cab sheet metal work i restored a 66 truck back in 1994 and most of the repair panels were not available then and had to be made from scratch including the inner rocker panels.looks like you have done a fine job.

Good to see you back ....it's been almost a year.
Do you have a part number for those headers? How far down do they hang underneath?

The headers are summit long tubes for a 67 camaro , they were 239 $ as I recall, they dont hang too low and for a stock truck like mine plenty of clearance, I can get the part # if you want in a few |
