Started buying patch panels..still waiting for warmer weather. We are going to put the cab in my buddy's garage for a little while so I can hammer it out.. I am going to use some vacation days and make some progress..then I will have to set the cab and fenders back on and finish my frame mounts and mock up my new firewall, steering, and booster..

i dropped a FE in mine but I moved the trans crossmember forward and built perches on top of it for the FE to sit on. Let me put the motor at the exact height I wanted.
