My son Harley and I have been working on his 61 Uni for the last couple of years. We finished welding up all the unnecessary holes in the frame, and boxed in the front of the frame back to the cab mounts. We sandblasted the frame and finished painting it. We have the 312 finished up and got everything running. We were supposed to finish up the body work this summer, but we bought a new shop and house so we can't go any farther untill this winter.......bummer......lol.
Here is a pic of the finished frame and power plant:
That's my happy son Harley....................lol

I've got tons of pics of the frame and suspension during the build, but all my pics of the original truck we're lost when my old computer died........
One neat thing, Harley paid $125 for it AND DROVE IT HOME!

My heart was just sick when he called twenty minutes after leaving the house, and asked if I'd bring the tow truck. My wife said I looked like somebody had died.......
Harley and I are damn lucky............
