Yeah it's coming right along. Like I said I had the measurements of how it was before I cut it. I was just asking to make sure it was right. But I ended up just bolting the clip on to get it figured out. I have gotten a lot of inspiration on this board. Lot more than others. Seems to be more support here than bashing like other sites. Someone messes up, instead of dogging them, everyone shows support and then offers solutions. That's one thing I love about this forum. I hope noone takes that out of context when I said I didn't get an answer.. Nothing was meant by it.

I agree. I've only been on here for a few weeks but i can already see that. I've been a long term member of other forums but this one seems different..Drama Free and encouraging.

Thanks man. I actually just bought it two weeks go. Enjoying every minute of it too. I've built a pair of Impala's and most recently was going to build a 37' chevy but i've always had an itch to build a truck. So i sold the 37 and immediately found this one in Iowa. I'll start a build thread today with pics and details.
