Well a while back I posted my chassis and drive train in the classified section and ended up selling it. So first thing I needed to find me a new driver, so the search was on. I was really wanting a late 90's two door tahoe, but I'd settle for a clean 90's short reg cab truck..... well this is what I ended up with.

Not quite what I was looking for, but for some odd reason I just couldn't pass it up.

jwalk · 12-21-2010, 03:02 AM

So with that said.... I got my frame rolling. I still need to trim my rack ends..

NICE!!!! keep pictures coming

jwalk · 01-23-2011, 10:33 PM

Well the old frame and drive train are gone. The dude came and picked it up last night, all the way from Brimingham Alabama. With me starting a new job I can't work on my dads at the shop like with my old job. Which kinda sucks! This is all I got done to my dads before I had to leave. So I'm having to make room in my shop, so I can finish it.

Now for the good stuff! Since I'm having to make room in my shop and now that frame is gone I have room to work. I figured if I can get all my sheet metal on my trucks that'll give me room to work on my dads.

So today I cut the center of my bed out so I can mount it and I got my front clip apart. I'll try and get the front clip on later this week. Here's some pics. Let me know what y'all think.....

I'm going to try and order my tires by the end of the week.... I'm sure it'll take a few weeks for them to get to me.

**lolife99** · 01-23-2011, 10:45 PM

Sweet!
What are your plans for the bed floor?

jwalk · 01-23-2011, 10:53 PM

Thanks! I'm not really sure what I want to do with the bed floor. Open to Ideas... I might just do a clean smooth sheet metal bed. Whatcha think?

jasonhall · 01-23-2011, 10:59 PM

Progress looks good..Its to cold out for me
