Thanks Dale...It was a beautiful day with a gorgeous sky and I took a bunch of pics for that reason. I'm also resigned to the fact that he may not keep it long. She might get put in a reed basket and pushed down the Nile very soon, we'll see. It's his truck and I'm more than cool with it. I have learned that for me, the fun is in the process. And though I was often complaining, I had a lot of fun in this build.

If your brother needs a nice set of caps for the rally wheels have him reach out to me. I've got the take-off NOS set that were briefly used on my Blazer but the trim rings went to another member.

Cheers
You are always too generous. He's got some supposedly NOS caps...don't know about the trim rings. Neither have fallen under my eye. He was quick to point out the NOS back up light lenses to all comers yesterday and the kindness of a man named New Mexico from Wisconsin.

I think Pete's nailed it. I've got a 1970 K20 that is most definitely a keeper for me, but I've got some time. Eric is in fact about to start on a Ranchero Squire (he's finishing up a 72 Blazer now). To say he's not thrilled about working on a Ford car/truck...cruck? trar?...is an understatement. But it makes for some good natured ribbing. And it gives me time to get ahead of him with sub-assembly restoration and parts farming for the K20.
