^^^ Thanks alot!

Small update... painter is finally getting caught up so they are gonna try to get started on the bed this week. I have been working on the door gaps and trying to get them as straight as possible. Went to LMC this weekend and bought a new gas tank, tank grommets, hoses, door "rattle" weatherstrip, hood emblem, stainless center hood trim, knobs and handles, tail light brackets ad several other small items. I also built the 3" stainless exhuast and had a friend tig weld it all together. I hate spending the money on stainless but it looks awesome hand tigged and lasts forever. I also cut the 3 bolt flanges off the headers and welded on 3" v-band clamps to ensure a leak free connection.

I will get some pics loaded soon!
