I have so many parts and tools, and not enough space, so build a extra floor in my garage.

Small update, was a long time away for my work, so did'nt have time to work on the truck.
Was working in Bakersfield CA, so filled my suitcase with a lott of new stuff:metal:

Installed a new Lokar gas cable. And started working on the inside roof with Dynamat extreme..

Hi mike,
I bought the gas tank by Brothers trucks.
And I cut off the brackets so I could install the tank
More to the back of the truck.
I will measure the tank this week for you..
