Looking good, Jason. Your gas cap reminds me of the radiator cap for a Ford 8N tractor.

Fuel cap

The fuel cap looks like a Jaguar XJ fuel cap.

Sorry it’s been too long since I updated. Truth is, not much has been going on except waiting on paint for the front clip and running boards. Finally got everything painted and getting ready to mock up and tape off for the stripes. Then take it apart, prep cab, bed and tailgate for stripes, then stripe it and clear it. Good eye on the gas cap guys!!! Definitely a Jaguar...

Thanks! It’s definitely taken a lot longer than expected, the metal work, body and paint was about 2 years. Next truck patina!

Finally done with paint and stripes. Dropped off front bumper to get powder coat. Tucked it close and hidden all bolt holes.

Little car show action with my 5 year old. It was his first ride in the truck. He kept saying, “daddy this is sick!”
