Re: Francis the Tow Pig - 1949 GMC 250 Dually

OK, front sheet metal is mounted. I'll work on the splash pan and bumper at a later date. Fuel tank is arriving today, so I'm going to try and get the tail end wrapped up so I can finalize my bed measurements. Need to get started on the steering column, brake pedal/booster/master, seat brackets, and a transmission tunnel.

I also attached a picture of the "hockey pucks" I'm using for the front sheet metal and the bed. Another member had asked me about my trim lines in the inner fenders, not the prettiest and not perfectly contoured, but it works. Still have some trimming to do and fine tuning with the grinder.

Once I've got the steering column and brake stuff knocked out on the cab, I'll pull the cab and engine/trans back off the frame. Paint the frame, run the fuel lines, brake lines, and get the engine addressed and painted.
