Sorry for the delay. Basically I sent 25+ pieces including the frame for powdercoat, which created a nightmare. Poor sandblasting, even gray primer visible on the frame, and several thick over coated pieces. The piece that turned out the best was the mount for one of the i-beams and I don't even get to see it 
While the Ford was down I bought a 76 Chev K20 as my temporary daily driver. Sorry for the C word. In short, its a Cali truck so the body and under carriage is a beauty. However, I ended up doing quite a few things to pass inspection, and later a new 350 install
So after dealing with my shmevy and touching up some components from powder coating, I have this. Not much, but it brought a smile. DJM dream beams, and the shackles are installed in the back. I am currently working on the steering and rebuilding the 9". Thanks for the interest!

Nice to see you guys again, ahaha.
A few things happened, but I found my self restarting where I left off on my build finally and poking around FTE a bit more lately so I figured I'd say I missed some of the action going on here and hope to come to you guys with questions and enlighten you with updates as they come.
Not much has changed since my last pic, but maybe by Sunday night things will be different?
See yah around !
