Looks great, Brian. You going to make it out to the Truck Nationals tomorrow?

Thanks Vic. Yes I will be out there sometime. I am thinking late morning. I will have my girls with me. I also plan to go to the Harley factory open house.

Guys- I do have a ton of pics to post and some updates but I am feeling to lazy to post. The good news is that the big window rear roof is officially welded on and the I am starting to work on the floors. Tired of messing with the cab and time to move on. (-;

I also just bought some front air bags from Porterbuilt so I am entered in the front dropmember give away.
Check out the link here on their home page for rules. Dont worry I have it wrapped up though.. I am praying I can win but I know my luck isnt good lately.

It sounds like you are making good progress, I can't wait to see the pictures of the completed roof swap and the rest of the metal repair work.

How's the build going?

Its been a long time since i have been on the site. I have actually been a little burn out on the project so I was taking a break. I almost decided to give up and buy my friends 1969 that is more of a driver. However he decided that he is going to keep it and even before he decided that I was thinking i just need to finish what I have started.

Today is a great day for my project because I have finally left the DMV with the proper stuff to get the title in my name. I had to get a ID by the police dept and that took awhile since the truck is in pieces. It was great because my new neighbor is a police officer.

Anyway I am extremely happy other than my 175 dollar late penalty but hey I have a title in my name coming my way.

Another great thing is that I am less than a month away from my wife having a job. She has graduated and will be a 1st grade teacher this fall. Its been a long haul to get to this point but the good thing is that I havent parted this one out yet.

I hope to make a big push on the cab in the near future and i have a ton of pictures from stuff I have been working on over the past 6 months but not major progress. The roof is almost on completely. I am finishing up some welding and grinding but the roof is on. I did get a little warping below the back glass which I will need to figure out the best way to fix. It had some dents in the back already so I think the welding and grinding caused these to be more profound.

I think once i get a good cab in primer i will be very happy with the project.. I am almost there and I just need to make a effort to finish this cab out. getting the title really makes me excited about it again.

Sorry for the long absence but I still have the truck and will hopefully have progress pics up in the near future.

I just went back through my thread and I have a ton of pictures to post. I will try to get them up in the next day or so.. I know how you guys like pictures.
