Thanks for all the nice comments guys... .it keeps me motivated.
I didn't have a lot of time to work on the truck today but I did make a bit of progress.
Delmo gave me a phone tutorial on how to get the torque convertor mounted properly (I've never actually done it before) and so I mated the trans and motor... and got them all set in place. I haven't mounted the trans xmember as I need to establish the driveline angle.
I didn't have enough neighbors around to help me muscle the cab onto the chassis so I may need to get egyptian on this thing again...
Here are some pics of how it sits at current.
