Thanks guys! I have been busy getting the patches installed around the back cab corners on that truck floor and installed a new rear cross member under it. Sandblasted the rust underneath it,just to know what was under it. I coated it with etch primer followed by another primer, than textured rock chip guard and paint. I didn't want to replace any of it in the next 15 years again. Then I went ahead and installed lower pillars and cab corners before putting in the floor, so I could grind down the welds from the inside first. The floor has another donor hump extending from the center to continue the look of the the low hump throughout the cab. Hopefully it will also give me an extra inch or two for clearance to for the transfer case if I need it. It will also act as a way to hold up the 2nd carpet kit in the center of the floor more like factory. Finally I added pieces left over from the burb floor I cut out to make the burb floor flow into the 2nd floor. So lots of work before getting to this point. I promise I'm not slacking!

[Dieselwrencher]

Anyone saying your slacking should go try one. I've only cut a burb down and put a cab rear on before. Then sold the project. These are definitely labor intense. Haha

Looks great Trevor! You really do good work!

[Hart_Rod]

Dang Trevor, nice job! I didn't even know you were building this.....

[71blksuper4x4]

Thanks Rob, I have started a new position at work and I have been battling either Bronchitis or Asthma the past couple of weeks. So no new progress guys. Trevor

[71blksuper4x4]

Well, it wasnt Bronchitis or a Allergy keeping me from the shop. Checked into the ER on Memorial day and found out i had Atrial Fibrilation from a bad heart valve. I will be having a second open heart surgery to replace my valve at the end of the month. So that means I have to take it easy between now and then. Progress will be at a stand still for most of the summer until i recover. Take care guys, Trevor

[swamp rat]

Thats not the best news to say the least, take care of yourself!

[DWilbur]

Sad to hear the news. Take care and wish you the best

[71blksuper4x4]

Thanks guys, i am not going anywhere, but ill take my time recovering. In the meantime, i plan to sit back and watch all you guys get some work done during the good months lol. Trevor

[72 tigger]

I'll be praying the surgery goes well. Sorry you're going thru this.

[72 Super]

Take it easy Trevor, wishing you the best and a full recovery.

Hi Trevor, I'm new to the forums here. I must say that you are a Stud Fabricator..

I'll be praying for you. And I can't wait to watch your work continue in the next few months.

[7dee2]

Sorry to hear but wishing you a speedy recovery Trevor! And yes you are a stud fabricator!

[Dieselwrencher]

Trevor, sorry to hear about your health issues! I hope everything goes alright for ya! Don't rush back out there, you only get one heart.

[Truck Guy99]

Sad to hear but glad you found out before it was too late. Praying for a quick recovery and that you'll get to finish your truck soon. Your health and family comes first so take your time
