If I ever get this thing done and go to them at least. Right now the current project(s) on it ar e painting the cab and doors, the bed is having a set of 59 caddy tail lightsfrenched in, working on fabbing up mounts for a 59 Buick rear bumper I scored, and also waiting to get the bed back so I can install a set of 61 Impala rear wheel arches on the bedsides before painting and reassembling them. I've also taken a different route on the wheelsand tires. Sorry guys, but no more slots. Soon she will be riding on a set of white walls mounted on truck rallies so that I can run the Cadillac sombrero hubcaps I picked up. Going to be a fully different truck once I get done. Hoping to have it together and finished for my wedding in June 2022, so it's crunch time! I'll try and update some more progress pictures as I can. Gotta transfer them from my phone to the computer.
