Red or what?

Upper front fenders installed Wed. night. Installed lowers Sat. but did not get a picture. Finished all the front wiring and will install front bumper this week. Hope to see another friend about installing a head liner this week also. Need to finish by May for a local car show. Still need to paint bed and rear fenders.

There is no hurry to finish for the show. We will take it even if it is not finished. Last year we took it to the same show unfinished and we almost won a trophy but we lost to another Ford truck that was completed. Still enjoyed the show and the competition very much.

I've got the same goal, driving it to the first show in May. Mine will still be in white primer, however.
