Totally! My son thought I got it originally for him. He has a beater car for high school, and it is a great learning car. So he was the first one who was ticked. BTW you probably face the same thing, everyone, and I mean everyone of your friends who are not car folks think we are crazy for driving anything but stock rides. The strange part is that a lot of them like them but just don't know why we waste our time doing all this mess!

Glad to see you're back on this! Anxious to see you solve problems.

I had to smile and nod at this:

I was cracking up, not only at my bad grammar in that quote, but just how true that statement is even today... I took my dually to lunch and there were these oil field workers who just stood there looking at it in the parking lot. It was sitting on the frame parked. They were not being mean or ugly, just standing there checking it out. Dollars for donuts that they were thinking "Why would a guy ruin a good work truck like that?" Then I walked over and got in and hit the Accuair up to setting 3 (highest height setting), and the look on their faces was awesome. It was like "Did you see that!" "Dang!! The Decepticons are real!!!" Or something like that...

What ever happened with this project. I just come into an 03 Yukon 3/4 ton 4x4 thinking of putting one of my 67 cabs on it. 6.0 liter 4l80

It is still moving slowly along. I just have not been posting progress here. However I have the cab mounted, new seats, and a ton of small stuff done. Our summer was brutally hot and it was tough to get out and work on it, Covid did not help either. I have the bed to fit and mount, and then on to the front end. I'll see if I can take some update pictures of where I am.
