Looks great. You're about where I am in my build. It's so fun to just bolt on new parts!

It is a very fun part of the build. Planning and preparation pay off quite well.

We did get some work done this weekend.

Greg and I have zero experience with how to do any of this. No one around to recruit or even ask questions so we are just figuring it out.

Re: Two is easier then one 1965 GMC S/W/BB build
So to help (not that we need to be encouraged) visualize my vision of the finished truck I had a rendition of the final truck made. I really wanted to see it in color with it's stance and bright work. Though I'm not a big fan of chrome as Robert will attest, I think she has just enough bling to turn a few heads. Comments are welcome of course.

IMO that is a perfect look. 20 years from now it will still be cool. Truck is turning out very nice.

Greg is killing it

While I fittered away most of the weekend butchering a fuel tank Greg cut the floor out, as well as all the rusted panels that he is replacing.

For a guy that has NEVER even cut a single spot weld out, he is amazing.
