Thank you and yes it is. It’s been 5-years and 3 trucks in the making.

The problem I’m finding with 2 trucks is only one budget to fund them. I keep trying to gear up on the ‘67 but keeping finding little stuff for the ‘72. First world problems I guess.

When I got home tonight I decided to install a new dome light. Still have to hook up the wiring. I also installed some Precision Push-on door weatherstripping. Overall the fit and finish is great. I had a little trouble with the driver’s door due to the kick panel speaker panel and all the wiring. But it wasn’t too bad. A small rubber mallet helped with the install...and potential frustrations.

Tonight is a nice night so took the truck to the store to get something to throw on the grill. I was amazed at how much more quiet the truck drove with the new weatherstripping. Well worth the $50 investment.
