The place you got the grille from should have the brackets for it.
Truck looks Good!

I am now starting on the interior. I have put in Fat Mat sound deadener and was wondering if I put down a second layer on the floor board if it would be better or if I would just be waisting it. I will be installing the carpet and the getting everything else upholstered next week.

 Wow! When I see motivation like that with the positive end results it makes me get just that much more motivated myself on my own truck.

 Great work and slick looking truck you have there. What engine does it have? you may have said, and I missed the post. Stock rebuild other than intake, carb, headers? What valve covers are those? I really like the look of them.
               
                                                                  Thanks!

If you got some left over do inside of the doors, you be amazed on how much the door will sound with it rather then w/o it. I plan on doing the inside of my doors once i reach you stage.

thanks

I did the inside of the doors too. It took about 2 1/2 hours per door. Lots of little cuts on my fingers trying to get to all those hard to reach places but it did help and was worth it. The engine is a create 350 with Hooker headers and Edelbrock carburetor and intake manifold. The air cleaner cover and valve covers I got from a local Hot Rod shop. I see so many trucks are all chromed out (and look very nice) but I just wanted to do a little chrome and keep it clean. 

Here are a couple most recent pics of the engine. Hope to have some more interior pics soon.
