- Had the chassis powder coated and re-assembled.
- Shaved the firewall with the LS Fab firewall. Looks like that's how it should have been from the factory.
- Doors have been gapped and bear claw latches have been installed
- Got the LS3 stripped painted and re-installed. Had to have some custom motor mounts fabricated to get the trans down low enough to clear the trans tunnel in the cab. It BARELY fit.
