Cool project. This thread is helping me to get motivated on working on some of my projects. I know what you are saying about the economy slowing you down. I was working like crazy on all of my projects until the economy started affecting me in December. Since then there hasn't been much wrench turning. Looking forward to seeing more on this one.

So far the whole truck is in sealer and most of the rust issues have been solved. I have not really done any body work excepth where I welded or replaced sheet metal.. All I have left is the rusty passenger door and it will look like a whole truck agian.

I still need a driver side window regulator but the rest of the door hardware is new. I think I talked the father in law out of the roll pan idea so I threw on the front bumper and found out the whole cab is off or who ever installed the nova clip really fubared it up. I have not really looked into this yet but I will.... Its on the very very long list of things to do.. The front grill and bumper are going to be replaced with chrome units.... This is the last of the door patch panels to finish off.... SO there's the updates hopefully we will cruising this weekend... Just need to go pick up the new wheels and tires for it..
