| A shot of the front with fenders. Since this was shot, the headlight buckets are in, I've misplaced more tools and the hood needs only adjustment before closing normally. | |||||||||||||

| Two pretty good side shots of the truck with most of the major components now installed. Since these were taken, the driver-side door was installed and all the handles, linkage, windows, cranks, seals and stuff were installed. With the cab now totally sealed (from cats that love to urinate near/on this truck) I installed the seat. Additional photos of this progress have been taken but need to be developed/scanned once the roll is finished. The plan is to have the truck home the weekend before Christmas. The remaining items include: > Break down the wheels *** DONE *** > Prep and paint the rims green (including black pinstripes and chrome center discs)*** DONE *** > Install new Firestone 600x16 with tubes *** DONE *** > Wire the headlights and front turn signals *** DONE *** > Purchase, install and wire rear taillights (vintage F**d rectangular units) *** DONE *** > Create custom brackets for bumper and mount said bumper *** DONE *** > Get exhaust welded/assembled (Smitty's glasspacks) PENDING > Wash/wax/clean/prep PENDING |
