Progress at 11 months
Just some pictures to show my progress . I need tires and wheels, headliner,kick panels and some minor trim . This was built to be driven and used . By no means a show truck .

Wow, that's quite a transformation! I like the stock look for a working vehicle.

I have to disagree! It's a show truck in my mind. I sure would be running over to it and checking everything out closely at a show. She looks great!

Beautiful!
Looks like an oil tornado went through the old engine bay picture

Very good, Dave!
Did you recover the seat or is it a "new" one?

That looks great Dave. The engine bay looks like an entirely different truck.

I think so too!
It looks just fine. I like what you have done with it in a very short amount of time.
It's ready for work again after being in retirement.

That truck looks fantastic! I really like to see them when they've retained the original look. Five stars to you on a workhorse being completely freshened up in only 11 months!
