Looking good Gil, I know I've seen those tail lights before on something but can't seen to place them just now. I was thinking Pontiac ...

Really looking good Gil!!! Curious what the status is on your other truck. I'm assuming you wanted to get something running fast so you could have some fun while you figure out where you stand with the chop top.

Chop top is ready for paint,just Got tired of filling in gaps and trying to make it perfect,basically just had cowl and hood fitment issues left, then I decided to go a different direction, so this is when I found this cab cheap and took all the parts I didn't want on the other truck and put it on this one which was supposed to be just a rat rod but... it's really not looking that way,and yes I just need something to drive.
