Those MAWs will have you smiling when you get through this and are sitting in that seat again! Keep up the effort and enjoy the time you spend to make this truck your own!

Haven't made a post here for over a year.. it's not like nothing is happening but sometimes it feels "like nothing is happening"...

Took this picture today. I could bolt the wheels on and roll it around. Everything you see has been cleaned, rebuilt as required and given a fresh appearance. Just bolting the block back in the frame was a huge accomplishment "for me"...

Thanks for all the help with the little things in several other threads!! You guys are the best!! Couldn't do it with out you!!!
