Done!!!

I just need to do the drive train (engine and Tranny, But the rest is done. I took it for a little ride and it drives just like the Two other Chevy's that you can see in the background.

A little Info:
Birch wood in the box
3" dropped spindles, 1" lower springs in the front.
4" Dropped springs in the rear.
It only took 3 years of work, and money. The joy of seeing it in the sun was unbelievable. That is something that the guys who pay to get the work done can't say. I did Everything to this truck myself, with the exception so Spraying the Paint. So if you ask me who is proud, I'd Say I was.
