I was wondering about this project. I kinda figured you put it on hold while you did the axle swap.

New doors, fenders, hood, box, and a boat load of bondo. I'm taking them in to the shop next week and sanding, sanding, sanding, repairs, and more sanding. Then I can paint everything one color!










(No hood or truck box pic... sorry)
