Here are a few pics. I still have a little ways to go but I should have her going down the road in the next couple of weeks. I've got to build some bed wood and finish putting the interior together.

From a complete outsider to all of this... That is a beautiful truck. Nice work!

After going through my old heap after I wrecked it 3 years ago... I intended to have it back on the road in less than a year. But here it is almost 3.5 years later and I might have it driveable by the end of August. The struggle is real... :)

My truck should have been a fleetside 3 years ago... still a stepside... but getting closer!

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Chad (CC69Rat) and I never doubted Russ's dedication to finishing this truck. Life has a way of making good intentions much harder to fulfill. The parts and labor we provided were always gifts to help him build this truck for a deserving young lady. Great job all around!

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Hope to meet you this weekend Rus, glad to be of some help, this is a wonderful deed you have done. :chevy:

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Looking forward to it sir! We really appreciate your contribution.

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

I refused to post in this thread before, mainly because it was none of my business. To everyone that contributed to this build, congratulations on a job well done. Rus, I don't know you sir, but my hat is off to you. Your workmanship, integrity, honesty and your heart have shown through. Respect.

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Who wouldn't just love to own that beauty? Wow. Long time coming, well worth the wait gentlemen. They didn't look that good when new. Congrats to all who had a hand in this rebuild.

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Yes, thank you very much!!!

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

I appreciate all the kind words.

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Russ, it was great meeting you today and getting to see project underhaulin, it looks as great in person. Also thanks for the shop tour and showing us your many spectacular rides. Glad you were pleased with your surprise for the project so glad we were able to help. Because that is what chevy guys do :chevy::chevy::chevy:

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Thanks Larry! It was a pleasure meeting you as well and I'm so thankful for your contribution! I should have some installed pics early next week.

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Update: Project Underhaulin' is in its new home in Florida. This truck's road has been long and sometimes tumultuous, but at this point the truck can take on a new life with us. Woody, Russ, and everyone else who invested blood, sweat, busted knuckles, parts, money, and time can be very proud of what they've accomplished. I know Clyde and Dawn would be proud and thankful. Thanks for all of your hard work, we'll take it from here...

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Talk about a perfect looking ride. That is an excellent blue. Id be proud to putt around in that truck for sure.

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Awesome. Congrats.
Came a long way.

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Great, glad all came to pass, life happens and has a way of affecting time lines. All involved looks to have done a great job.

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Well said, Sir.

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?

I hope the money we paid for the truck goes a long way toward the goals of buying a headstone for Clyde and Dawn and creating bank/savings accounts for their grandchildren.

We have made several updates to the truck which can be followed at:

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

So glad this project saw a happy ending.
It has been frustrating to say the least. Especially for me. I was the one who collected and distributed all the monetary donations, and like many others I donated hundreds myself. I was in constant contact with both of Dawn's daughters throughout with no updates to give them.
I was a forum staff member at the time, but after the original Project Underhaulin thread was locked, I got so frustrated that I had to step away from this forum. This is my first post since May of 2017.
For some reason, today I got to wondering what ever happened, so I logged in.
A happy ending for sure.
Kudos to everyone involved.

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Beautiful build! To all those who gave, you will be rewarded with good karma which is better than money

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Whoa flashback :lol:

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

Oh wow! I had wondered what came of all this - good to see it finished & being enjoyed!

Re: Project Underhaulin Update?
 

I could swear something similar to this happened on an Old Ford truck forum I frequent...
