Hi, Making some more progress on the 57 pickup project. Got a lot of the wiring done, decided where the PCM, TAC module and relay center will live. Installed the steering column, almost done with the vintage air install, started making brake lines and battery cables. I should be able to power up the truck and see if I can communicate with the PCM, see if the fuel pump has its 2 second prime and run the fans. Getting closer all the time. The ligh is getting brighter at the end of the tunnel. Steve

Some more progress pictures of my project. Test fit the steering wheel after, finished making battery cables, brake lines and made the aluminum panels for under the back window which will get covered with carpet. Getting closer. Steve

Looking great. I’m in the same assembly phase with my build. I’ve been trying to figure out what to do with my back wall. I may be borrowing your idea. I like it. Keep up the pace. You’ll be done before the thaw!

Thank You. I used .060" aluminum for those pieces. the end pieces were pretty tough to bend as I have know bending tools so had to use the vice and my Argon tank. It worked out and should look good. I started on the door stuff and found out the reproduction vent window mounting holes were all off and had to be redrilled. Yes!! I hope to have it running in the spring Steve

Got a few more things going on my project. Put the vent windows and door glass in, finished the fuel lines and began mocking up the exhaust. Steve
