I got the 4-Speed with Hydraulic clutch installed and then centered it in the frame and now it is installed into the frame. Looks great.
Now to work on getting a drive line built.
Also, just did a very large order with Classic Industries as they had 30% off last week, so it was time to order a bunch of larger items. So waiting on that stuff.
Also, got ahold of my powder coating buddy and asked to have him blast my cab, if i find it needs it.
Originally i had planned on wrapping the truck, but after looking into it and knowing that i have little to no experience in that, i have decided to go ahead and paint the flat red on. i have done flat before on my "69. I am not the best, but i can get it done. Maybe down the road i will get it wrapped if needed by professional. So, now i am looking at a single stage flat red on most of the outside with black highlights, grill, rims, SS strips ect.
