Thanks! No, it definately is not done yet. Finding time has been nearly impossible for me lately. The truck is stored at my parents until I paint it. Then, I'll bring it to my house. That's when I'll be able to get to it whenever I have an extra hour or two.

I did get a little work done on the driver side bucket seat mounts. I made some underside supports for the bolts. I cut apart a window channel and welded on some 1/2" fender u-bolts. Then, I welded them to the bottom of the cab. Much more sturdy than a large bolt/washer combo.

Nice job, you can do almost anything with a mig welder, I love mine!
