Good pics! And yes, all projects take at least 4 times what you think they will. Just keep at 'er! Weather isn't too cold for working outside!

Looks like you've got a lot of work ahead of you! Also looks like a good project though.

I was out working on the truck till about 10:30 PM last night - weather was great... mosquitoes were another story.

if u r talking about the floor u see it is the old cab the red cab is the new one goin on the truck

and there is no welding to do to it,it is alnost rust free so should allow things to go fairly quick and she is a rebuild of my existing rig for those of u that didn't know and yes she should be sweet when she is done.

here is what i got done today the frame is painted and almost ready for the cab just got to run the new brake line and put the fuel lines back in place and hang the gas then she is ready for the cab as for the back part off the frame tim is right there is some welding to do to the back part of the frame and can't do it till i get it away from the wall so that is going to wait until the truck is running again
