Its been a while since the last update but I have been in the garage as much as possible. I managed to get the passenger door back on and roughly aligned, Reassembled the differential with new seals and thrust washers, and put it back in place with the new spring perches just sitting in place until I can set the pinion angle and weld them in.


Welded in the replacement lower hinge pocket reinforcement panels


Set the motor and trans back in place to check clearance with the front sheet metal and radiator and started to loosely assemble the front end until I can get the drivers door back on and everything aligned.








Yesterday the big brown truck delivered a new brake booster so I went ahead and reassembled the steering column and drilled the hole in the firewall for the booster to test fit everything.



It sure is nice to see this thing start to look like a truck again instead of a pile of parts.
