Thanks for all the compliments, I really appreciate it.

The bed is being finished up this week and the wiring and plumbing has been started.
I get to take my weekly visit on Friday to the progress and take pictures.

A few more things about the truck, minor little details that people normally don't notice, but if your looking at this thread you probably know about older Chevy trucks and will know what I am talking about.

On the inside of the cab where it was originally put together it had seems in the front on the A-pillars and the rear of the cab. On the A-pillar I had the seems welded and worked smooth, a small touch, to make it line up.

The engine assembly will have an OBDII, ( I think that is what it is called) under the dash so it can be plugged in to a computer and check diagnostically for codes and tuning purposes.

Has an Ididit Tilt Steering column, which will be equipped with a Torque Thrust Steering Wheel to match my wheels.

The bed will have bolt less wood installed in it. For those who do not know in older model trucks the bed strips had many bolts that held them down plus the bed wood had 6 big bolts with 3 " washers that kinda held it all together. Well today they have a system in which you can put the wood in the bed and not have any fasteners showing, just a nice little trick that looks really good.

Still trying to decide on the exhaust right now, unfortunately everything has to be custom made and that word Custom means Money Money Money.
