I can't make up my mind at what I want to do regarding this truck, whether to fit all the front sheet metal now or take the box off and get the frame ready and complete the paint. This not having room to work is getting to be a big problem..

I would offer, if the box is built, remove it, do the frame to finish and put the front together to final and lastly reinstal the box to finish. ..... Cover the box outside with a tarp to save to finish time.

I kind of made a plan and will start making room out in my storage tent so I can remove the box and get it on my rotisserie and store it in there , pull the motor and transmission and store inside the shop and cover it with a tarp then remove the suspension parts that need painted and finish up the frame. None of this is going to be easy working on my own but I'll get it done...
How it looks now...before I start disassembling it I'll wait until my front bumper arrives so I can decide how much of the front frame rails I want to cut off to tighten the space between the bumper and front pan..

Evening All, Looking good John, looks like a truck again.

I started in on sorting out wiring today. Not my best forte, and not looking forward to more of it tomorrow…

I'm constantly having that problem lately, right hip and lower back has really been hurting and waking me up at night. Pain in my hip is unbearable at times. Not much I can do about it...lol
