Re: It ain't over till it's over.
WOW, it's been toooo long since I've been on here. Really impressed with the work you guys have done to this truck. It just goes to show that a little ingenuity and imagination can do just as much, if not more than tons of cash. Very very impressive.

Re: It ain't over till it's over.
ordered center caps today. got all the stereo system wired up, sounds good. gotta finish hiding the wires. got some wire loom to put in the engine bay to hide some wires. just tinkering away till we can get it out to my aunt's to finish prep for painting.

Re: It ain't over till it's over.
Give me more detail on what you did to the front bumper please! Looks like you welded the brackets in, but did you bolt them up first and then grind off the bolt heads on the front? What'd you use to get rid of the chrome on it, just grind it off?
Looks good from what I see!

Re: It ain't over till it's over.
believe it or not i have one of those with a complete set of dolly hammers for bodywork. just not here. they're in storage. too far to drive just to pick up a couple of tools and don't really have the room for anything else here. we have to squeeze sideways to get down the hallway to the bedrooms. our compressor is set up there wired straight to fusebox. shh. don't tell anyone. lol
