Thanks everyone!
The progress has been extremely slow the last two weeks while my contractor is getting some other jobs wrapped up. So this is why I've not updated the thread in a while.
Karl - I hope to have the lift installed by late July or sometime in August.
We did get the wainscot completed. Since no work was getting done on the shop I decided to do some work in the shop. I got Nancy out, gave her a wash, and finally got the new tailgate band I bought in February from a forum member installed.
Here are some pictures. I will post up more as things progress.
Thanks again everyone for the compliments!
