No I didn't make it...still working on it. I have been so busy at work I haven't had much time lately. Hopefully I will get a few trips around the block in it before summers is over.

Here is a few pics of the new grille and bumper..big thanks to Rick @ CHEVY METAL. Fit is real good and he is a great dude to deal with.

Last weekend I got alittle time to work on it and got the radiator installed, polished more bolts and washers, installed the door seals.

Little by Little it will get done...

Later.

Well... the truck has been sitting covered up for the last few weeks. I have been painting my house and doing some projects outside while we still have some summer weather. Between the house projects, work and my son's sports it hasn't left me much free time lately.

I will have about 7 months of bad weather to spend in the garage real soon.

Thanks for asking.

jlsanborn · 09-18-2012, 04:39 PM

I'll need all seven of those months! Truck is looking killer dude!

You east side guys get better weather than us

Although you get colder than we do! Thanks for the compliment. I wish I could have enjoyed it a little this year..but we will get a dry day or two this winter so I can wheel it around the block a few times.

You have a beautiful truck, your work is top notch. I really like how the mini tubs look in the bed. Hope my stepper turns out half as good as yours.

I've been a slacker lately. My job has been keeping me super busy the last few months, but I promise I'm getting back after it real soon.
