Still haven't done anything to her but scare myself yet but my plans are to Spray inner wheel wells and firewall white, power braid all the exposed harnesses, get a hood mocked up for it although she looks nice without 1..lol, cut and buff it, polish all the aluminum and shes back to show quality. Its Pearl White. Here is some more pics

Got truck back from paint. Painted block gloss black and had my headers ceramic coated. Inside of cab and firewall looks 100 times better then it did. Polishing all the aluminum now and starting to put it back together 👍

Installed wheel well, fuel regs, polished bracket and vacuum block. Installed the vacuum block and adjusted passenger door and fender gaps today.

Weird the pics are sideways but I'm taking them with phone upright...not sure what the deal is with that

[ripper70]

Few more things mounted up today...tonight I start to rework this mess you see on the table...

[ripper70]

Saturday I built a aluminum box to cover wirescoming out of firewall at fuse box location to have a clean look. I'll post it up installed this evening, here is a pic of the box welded up then finished seamless and polished

[ripper70]

Here is the box I made installed. Started routing all the wires in power braid. Almost have All the aluminum for bed including wheel tubs, battery box and fuel tank polished and ready to be installed!

[ripper70]

Got my guages and polished panel,steering column,and steering wheel installed today..new aluminum radiator and twin electric fans next on list 👍these sideways pics are driving me nuts..Ive tryed dif settings!

Looks good. I used to have that issue with the pictures sideway when I’d post on my iPhone occasionally. Click the picture, rotate it once ( Right or Left doesn’t matter), Save it, then rotate to the orientation you want to post it, save it. It will fix the sideways pictures. Good luck on the wiring harness, it’s awesome your capable of straighten that mess out, it would drive me crazy how it was too!

[ripper70]

Installed the tubs and bed pan pieces I polished this weekend with my son. Put together my fans and got the radiator ready to go in as well.

[sduckworth13]

Wow!! That came out shiny!! Looks good!! Glad you got the sideway pic issue figured out.

[builtbyKane]

[ripper70]

[ripper70]

Well since my son introduced me to Instagram I've been posting stuff on my page there and felt bad I've been neglecting my home here on this forum..lol. I gotta say without this forum alot of us would be lost. So much knowledge and experience here it's crazy. That being said here is a few pics of my finished truck minus the disc brakes I will be installing after I fire off my first bagged project this spring👍
