I have the pictures posted. My digital is not the best but I think the pictures are fair. I await you comments, criticism, laughter, sarcasm, hindsight and whatever else you can throw at me. Just look under Front Frame Work in my gallery.

Well man, there's no turning back now! Even if you DID want to not go forward, you've got the cab off!

Looks good! I love watching restos take place. Daisy will get hers one day...soon. I thought you were just going to add the MII suspension. Didn't realize you were going whole hog now! Keep up the good work!

The IFS will be a wetdream, not a nightmare! You'll love it. Best $ I've spent on my truck yet.

Thanks to all for the kind words of encouragement. The next few months will be hard, nasty and boring cleaning but it has to be done. I will enjoy some parts as I plan to apply the POR15 in sections. It should be real interesting. I am really looking forward to January. I want everything ready. I know I will still have to clean the IFS crossmember and paint it but I want as much done as possible befor then. It is really hard for me to believe that I finally got to this point (of no return) in the project. I'm very satisfied though and think I have a good plan. I just need to stay focused.

Many Thanks

Very nice, no turning back now.
I like your comment about some paint and some minor bodywork.....ha i wish for me; major bodywork.
Just remember; faint heart never won fair lady.
