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?

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.
