Well where to start
239 flathead- hasn't ran since I last reported it running but it has a new water pump and toght I will be installing fuel lines and system so another test fire probably on Saturday?

the frame axles and driveline have been grinded and Por 15 is on and lookin alright

the box is off the truck and has ben stripped down the tailgate I will be straigthing soon and I made a new rear roll pan but haven't welded it on since I ran out of gas.

the cab I have went around and got it straight and patched up I primed it last night and hope a first coat this weekend the door glass I\m still fighting with though

fenders the front fenders are nearly done, well the whole front clip is lookin decent but I guess bondo will be needed. The rear fenders and running boards I put in another shop and haven't looked a them since. but I guess they say save the best for last oh those are gonna be fun.

any other questions?
