I will probably go back and do something, just not sure what, so I'm moving on right now.

Thank you. I love the wheels too and the fact that they are factory engineered/sized.

Most in my family are not really into the truck, Corvette - yes, truck - no.
In the summers we lead youth kids to inner city construction sites and I drive everyone to and from, I knew I needed the seats!

Here's to the next 100 (trim, windows, interior, new truck gremlins, etc.). Can't wait to see this build completed.
Thanks for your interest and compliments. I am a research hound, so it follows that I would not waver from my final researched ideas.

Don't remind me of all that!

That's funny right there! This bad boy is like one of your children by now. Heck, you probably spend more time on it than you do your children some weeks. I can relate to how much time these projects take.

you will hit 300K hits before 2012

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Cowl panel is on.

New LED tail lights. Those suckers are bright!

I ran all the wires to the rear and adjusted and plugged in the brake light switch.
