That truck looks gorgeous. Can't wait to see it with all the trim on. Not sure what type of winter weather you usually have, but do you think or plan on driving it much when it done? Or will you be waiting till spring?

Thanks!! Well in Indiana snow usually holds off until December but as soon as temps stick around 40 and below it'll probably sleep tight for the winter lol. With the weekly start just to keep everything lubed and happy. We do get done rare 50* days in December and January so it might sneak out from hibernation then. I plan to drive it quite a bit when the weathers nice, but this truck will never have to see salt again!

Well, as far as progress goes.... not a lot.... I do have a few more parts in my pile waiting to be installed.
It has JUST NOW gotten cool enough to get out and do some more work. This has been a brutal and LONG summer.

Oh, how I want to be where you are with yours! I still have a few more miles to go in my journey to catch you.
