Did you ever fix the rust above the windshield? I'm going through that problem now and I'd like to know how it went.

Re: Project "Dirty D"

OK Im back and Yes its been a while. Nathan took some time to design/fab my rear canti-lever setup which took about 2-3 years but well worth the wait. I will start to do fabrication here soon.

Quick update since last post:
-Married, little daughter, new garage just for me and my truck.

I have made a few changes since my original plan that I have even considered changing my project name to "La Vejia" (The wifey in spanish) because she reminds me of my wife...Short, smooth curves, and likes to spend my money!

I love the build. That was one hell of a break you took. I'm very glad to see you're back at it.

Thank you, I know but I had to since I didnt want to settle with a different rear setup. Patience is a virtue

Appreciate that!

Here is an other update:
-I mocked the rear setup to get an idea.

Re: "La Veija"

Put the front together, then I got a sandblast project so I took everything apart to get it blasted while the equipment was out. Shaved all the unused holes on the chassis, what a PITA, about 12 hours on welding and grinding.
