If things go as planned, maybe this time next year I will continue on with this thread, or maybe just start a new one when the truck gets stripped down to the frame.

First thing I need to do is get a bigger shop built before any of my projects can get much done to them. I have that somewhat in the works already though. Side work is how I am funding the shop, and how I fund my projects. My current shop isn't big enough to tie up with a big project and still be able to do the side work.

Dam Nate the truck looks great but with the chrome grill and some Alcoa's that would be icing on the cake.
