Thanks guys....I learned a lot on this project. The only things I sent out for offsite work was the engine machine work, trans rebuild, differential setup, bench seat upholstery. All else was done by me. Even took a stab at the exhaust, which is pretty simple...straight back with a 90 to come out the sides. My first go round with welding motor mounts, shock mounts, trans x-member and spring perches....hope it all holds together...haha
The paint is pretty decent...didn't go 100% show worthy, too many little personality dents, but from 10 feet it looks nice.
It will be for sale as soon as the title process is finished.
Very nice but I never understood spending years of your life building something just to turn and sell it as soon as it is done. I must get too attached to stuff.

Yeah...it was never going to be a permanent addition to my garage, but more of a learning and proving to myself kind of project. Something I always wanted to do and admired the guys who had done a project this involved....and now I have.
I have sold off all my tools and woodworking equipment, so now the garage is empty. Now I will have more time to learn to play more guitar, read, and take my wife riding on my Street Glide.

You can stand/ride or whatever beside that beauty with a big grin on you face
Definitely! And I have to give a lot of credit to those on this forum who blazed the trail and empowered me to look at options when building a hot rod.
Congratulations on a job well done, it came out just beautiful. But I too could not sell a project after so much work, Drive it a season at least. My bad, it's your truck and I know you should do exactly what you want to it, with it, etc. I've enjoyed your build, thanks for sharing it with me, us.
