Well I just need to tie up a few loose ends then I can call the project done. I do have all electrical done even down to the back up lamps and ashtray light working. I need to affix the harness to the rear of the frame. The fuel cell needs to be bolted down and sending unit hooked up. I am waiting on a friend to install the tubs tomorrow night due to the fact I suck at sheet metal. I am scheduled to take the truck apart and have it to the body shop on Jan 9th. The interior shop will get it right after that. I am trying to get it all done by the Nor Cal meet. Looks like I will make it. I have done allot of work to this, but allot more needs to be done.

This was getting ready for the body

It's never too late to build a street truck. When I drive this around town it gets allot of looks. I don't know if they are "cool truck" looks or "that dumb ass spent too much money on that old LUV" looks. Either way, it's a fun truck.
