Looking great. For some reason a project no longer seems like a project once the glass goes in....

I did not install the glass I had a mobile glass guy do it. I got the glass from Classic Industries and had him install it. The Windshield went in easy only took them about 15 min, but the back glass gave them fits, it took them around 45 min and they were about to give up until I told them get it in and if you break the glass its on me I will get another one.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build

This is right before my first real drive. I have a car buddy that is not doing so well these days so I took the truck to his house so he can take a look at it. The truck rides nice but the best part was seeing the smile on his face when he was checking it out.
