Rich. That's Ka'Bluey's other hood off the red cab. It'll be getting put back on before too long.

RC. Yeah, at least it HAS a skeleton now.

Chip. It's moving faster than I thought. Probably because I don't have to cut anything apart first.

I'm fresh out of square tube, so after my scrap run tomorrow morning, I'll be stopping by Wheeler to get a few more sticks.

Well, I shouldn't have to point to a drawing on the wall if anybody wants to know what this will look like. Most of the skeleton is done and it's looking AWESOME! I'll get some pictures up by the weekend.

Lol, yeah, right! You'd be surprised at how many times I've pointed to that picture since I drew it!

Ok, I got some work done in the shop today. The only thing missing on the skeleton are the door frames. Since I'm not quite sure how to mate them to the floor, I decided to skin the floor first. ...but it's officially a C cab now!!!

I think this is the only other build that's Ford related.

https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...150-build.html

This is the build for my Chevelle SS.

The '64 Chevelle SS tribute build thread - Chevrolet Chevelle Forums

The beginning of Rich's thread was done at my shop. I did the floors, bodywork and paint.

I'll have more pictures tomorrow. I got the trans tunnel sealed up and the left rear quarter hung. The extra equipment makes this SO much easier. Thanks again, RC.
