Cheeked out the chassis pictures, you got it looking good. Checked out the rest of your galleries while I was there I got a feeling when you get through you will have something to be proud of.

Way cool, buddy! But after you showed ninety five shots of the sway bar bracket, I kinda wish you had shown sumpthin about how/where you boxed the frame. Where's the 4-link stuff?

Your mock-up motor looks better than my final one... and that kinda pisses me off.

Thanks for the comments guys RJ , you, of all people, should know that I box everything, front to rear!! One of the reasons for narrowing the front clip to make it the same width as the original frame. This thing started out as a low tech, low buck project hence the leaf spring rear, if I was starting over today I would probably go with a 4-link

Tim, I thought you had that truck on the road. What you been doing? Ha Ha! Too many of life's problems seem to get in the way don't they? I like what your doing and keep us updated. Looking real fine.
