A few picks along the way

Nice work! That is a really nice truck that anybody would be proud to own.

Thanks! I pretty happy with the results, alit less happy with the budget...lol

Wow looks great. Nice job.

Very nice! The seats look great. Local upholstery shop?

Thanks! The seat covers were from distinctive industries, they are awesome I’m super happy with the quality, but they were about a 6 month wait, which they don’t tell you when you order. I’m glad I waited tho

Thanks Tom!

I just finished the a/c rebuilt. Everything is new except for interior ductwork. Converted to 134. Kind of a pain get a/c working that probably hasn’t worked for 30 years

Beautiful build my friend. Very nice work. That blue with the saddle interior really pops.
