Progress.... Cab mounts are in but not tightened down yet until I get the bed squared up to it. Got the fuel tank all mocked up and drilled the holes in the frame. Then I started putting the bed together of course none of the holes lined up so I had to elongate every single hole. Then I used por-15 on all of the joints (that got a lil messy) lol I ended up getting the front panel and the whole left side together. I'm taking today off and giving myself a much needed break. This week hopefully I'll get the right side all together and get everything squared up. It won't be tomorrow though since I'm going to go buy another truck! LOL

Wouldn't it be nice if we all had someone to take pics for us as we go so we don't have to do it? LOL.
And while we're at it, how about more money and more time?
 Anyway, I'm loving the conversion. Awesome job!!!!!!

Jeez Vile save at least one for me.  I'd like another project truck someday, but at the rate you're scooping them up, I'll never find one.  :D
