welcome fellow Alabamian!  that is a very nice start.  just take your time and make it something "paw paw" would be proud of! 

at first i was a little worried when i just saw the bed...i was mighty relieved when i scrolled down and saw that nice interior and the rest of the truck...whew!

That looks REALLY good for sitting around for that long.  Excellent start.  Looks like it was taken care of really well.

Wow, it's been over a year and I did nothing with the truck. Sorry guys. I ended up getting a f350 and just putting money in it but now I'm serious about getting this project going.
