Truck is looking fantastic - mine is still down - waiting for a steering column to replace my stock one. Late =( should have been here two weeks ago, and no idea really, when it will ship. Supply issues stink. Keep up the awesome work - still plan to come check it our when mine is back running.

Im sorry to hear that man. Dementia is terrible. Ive had customers with it, its terrible. I suppose we are all lucky for the time we get, no matter the difficulty during, me and my family all still say if we had to do it again we would.
Hopefully you get that column in! I know how frustrating it can be to wait on parts. A week can feel like eternity.

I really really like those speaker grills in the doors. If my doors weren't together and finished I might actually go and do that on mine. Looks so clean and looks absolutely stock
Nice work.
I appreciate it! I think they came out well. I was concerned on how well they'd come out and they far exceeded my hopes.
Thank you for the kind words. The last few years certainly were a blessing, they taught me a lot. Im 27, so I dont have many friends in a similar boat, so it can be tough at times to navigate. I get a lot of enjoyment from this project, no matter how difficult it sometimes gets, at the end of the day I find myself fulfilled. I dont think many people feel that same sense of accomplishment at the end of the day, and it helps immensely with the situation.
