Re: 1971 Stepside LS Build

just read this entire thread. Absolutely beautiful build. You should be very proud. Im just starting my build from the frame up with a very rough cab but I will one day reach the finish line. Your build gave me some ideas as well so thank you for that.

You are almost there!!! I know you have to be stoked!
Thank you. I appreciate you taking the time to look through. Glad you got some ideas for your build. Keep at it.

Couple small updates that felt bigger than they probably should. I got the column back from paint and got it installed. Immediately, feels more like a complete truck being able to sit behind the wheel.

I then worked on the door locks. These are my originals and man they put up a fight going back in. I didn't think they should be that difficult, but in the end they are in. Another little thing that makes the doors look finished.

I've started wiring and I'm still waiting for the bed to be cut and polished.
