Re: '68 c10 build

Today we finished getting the doors aligned properly. The weatherstripping is still very tight but the gaps are great.

Re: '68 c10 build

We also got the white sprayed on the front of the fenders. We aren't running the trim on the face of the fenders/hood so we cut the line where it ties in with the grille. I think the blue will be sprayed tomorrow or Monday.

The inner fenders should be back from powder coating this afternoon so the front should start going together early next week.

I also totaled the receipts today and ball-parked what we have left to buy. Yikes!

Hahaha! While normally I would agree with the both of you, unfortunately we aren't keeping this truck.

Re: '68 c10 build

Great progress so far. I am building an extremely similar truck right now for resale infact it's almost disturbing how close our tastes are. Talking about receipts I hear ya. Still have interior, trim, bumpers, glass, paint, and in the number is staggering.
