It sure has! One year exactly today, and I'm still loving it. Here's a comparison between how it looked the day I bought it compared to today.




For my own record, here's everything I've done in the first year:

-shortbed conversion
-2.5" stepped rear frame, 2.5" bed raise
-rebuilt drum brakes (new drums, wheel cylinders, shoes, brake lines, master cylinder)
-HEI distributor conversion, new wires/plugs
-new exhaust manifolds
-rebuilt stock carb, new fuel lines, fuel tank
-new starter, battery cables
-22x9 GM transit wheels

In the next year I hope to complete:

-paint bed sides
-drop spindles, front disk brake conversion
-4" drop HD rear springs plus 2" drop blocks
-new rear wheel studs plus 1/2" spacers
