quick update got my roof epoxyed, floor roughed out n rust sealed. found some pin holes in the floor less than a dozen so I'm going to kitty hair em up n call it a day. cab corner got epoxyed too so i won't have to worry about em rusting again. also pulled parts off the firewall so i can start prepping it out. will update in few days.

btw i installed the glass doors and carpet i plan on making a decal for the rear window. saying "built not bought" and i figured out a name for the vehicle, family affair. since over 10 members drove and sat in this truck it has to stay in the family.

I'll definitely hit you up after i figure out something for the motor. thats one thing I'm having a hard time with, that way i can drive and pick it up from you I'm hoping by may at the latest. I still gotta save some more cash the the engine and wiring. i also want to get new radiators and a/c system while i got it apart just ads up quick. shoot the rear glass gasket cost me 50. Rite now i spend under or about a grand on everything.
