Here's a teaser shot from last night. I slapped a front fender on so I could visualize some of the fore/aft position issues. The cab is sitting at least 3" and perhaps as much as 5" higher in these photos because it's up on blocks.

I'll probably end up putting the firewall of the cab another 3" forward and shifting the front wheel farther back in the wheel well opening of the fender. Where it is now is almost exactly where I would leave it if I never planned on shortening the front. But from the very start I wanted to change the look of the factory truck so I'm still heading in that direction. With the cab farther forward the stock fender will look stupid with the wheel so far off center of the opening, but then I will do the sectioning of the fenders and hood to shorten them up.

...sigh... but first I gotta get the GM floor pan and firewall rough cut, the IH cab floor and firewall cut out and the two pieces married up.
