Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
Cade only has one football game left and no more football practice(YEAH) for a while so hopefully I can get him back to helping me on the truck. I hope taking him to cruisin the coast will help motivate him a little.
I just got mine back from the chassis shop so I have some work to do to it also.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
Great father son project DJ. Your son is a lucky guy to have a dad like you who wants to do a project with him. That was the farthest thing from my dad's mind when I was a teenager.
My daughter is already a truck nut and at 6 years old is out trying to turn wrenches with me. I would love to build something with her like you are doing with your son. I hope she stays interested.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
Love checking up on this thread. Gives me some good ideas for the build im currently working on. Im definatley ordering up the tubular motor mounts and cross member kit you had posted earlier on as im in the search for a cross member to ditch my 4 speed saginaw for a th350. I see you went with a painless wiring harness? How are them and wich one do you use. The po of my truck made such a mess of my all the wiring from headlight to tail light, is the painless the way to go to solve this?

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
I haven't done the wiring yet but I want to hide as much as possible so I bought a universal kit so I could customize it. We have got to get back on it so it will be running this Spring.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
Engine is a BBC right? If so what size?
Small Block Chevy fan here.  Me and my buddy just finished up a wiring job on a 1964 short bed Chevy step side. He was not happy about it, but it's really not that difficult at all. I told him we just have to keep all the wires alway from moving parts and anything that can get hot. And overall he did a very good job for his first time. I really need to update all the build pics I have and upload them. GOOD LUCK with the rest of Cade's project. I am sure it will turn out great!

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread
Truck was atleast rolled out of the shop for the first time yesterday. Covered in dust and lookin like its leaving the line.
 After a quickie was job and the bed removed.  This color is awesome even if the paint and body work leave a little to be desired. It just pops in the sun.  Back in the shop for the C notch. Thanks for letting me borrow it Mike Nutt. Thanks for the install help Mark Causey.    Fuel Cell Modded and ready for install. We will fill it through the synthetic wood Bed Floor.
