Man, everything looks great. Good move with the belt retractor; cleans up the interior when the door is open and not in the way when trying to get behind the seat. Love the vinyl floor, great choice. Very clean project, great colors, keep the pics coming.

AND A BIG 2X! Wow Gavin. It's been a while since you posted pics like these. I think all will agree you are right up there with tpdaniels and some others. Only his is finished. Awesome so far Buddy.
While I personally am a fan of Cheery Bombs, your rig is WAY past them. As usual I agree with Steve. Your rig deserves Borlas. They aren't cheap but they sound great. Last I heard they are stainless steel so they won't rust. And their interior material was some space age ceramic. Won't ever deteriorate. Last forever. I am Assuming they still are. I'd have to investigate.

This right here was one of the highest compliments Gavin. Randle's rig is one of the "others" I meant in my post above.

Hi Tim, they're ceramic coated.....just what I asked for. 
Thanks Gary!
Thank you sir! I can't wait to see what you're doing with the door panels. 
Hey Doug, thanks for stopping by.
I would like to get a "oem looking" exhaust system to go with those mufflers. Over the axle single or dual exiting behind the wheels.
Thanks! I'm glad you like it.
Thanks buddy!
Thanks Randle!
Thanks for the kind words Jeff!

Stay off the highway right now Gavin, you don't want to risk that nice truck, to some clown in an old Rambler station wagon, parking in your rear end.
I cannot add much to all the compliments you have already received, other than to say I 2nd the emotions...

I don't have much of and update.
Welded the upper air bag mounts....
...test fitted them.
Installed an air quick connect in the bed.
I'll prolly test fire the engine next weekend if it warms up a bit.
