Thanks Don. And thanks for letting me know about Donnie. Haven't had a chance to call him yet.

Thanks Clem. Really appreciate you support and everyone's on this forum. I tend to be my own worst critic wanting everything to be perfect. It is part of my personality striving to be a perfectionist and having a touch of OCD. In the end I keep telling myself it is a "50 year old truck" and is going to be a driver not a show truck. So it doesn't have to be perfect. Most of the mistakes I make would never be spotted by anyone except maybe another car or truck guy. I felt the same way when the seam sealer on the roof messed up and I got that straightened out. Its not about the obstacle when run into but how we got around them.
