It'd be a heck of a lot easier in the roll pan I'll tell you that. Those pix were taken with a crappy camera because I forgot mine and I didn't do any body work yet it's just welded in there. I still have to do the right side and then wire it all up. After that I need to adjust my valves and then over to the body shop for the finish work and paint. :D

You know, in a way, it looks reminiscent of the 67-72's.  Very clean job as always.

I'm ditching the cargo light all together so now I'm just debating if I want a rear side marker light or not..

Thanks for the compliments

Lights are sweet!  :o

We have rear side marker light laws in WI.  Not sure if you do or not.  If it matters even.  ;D

I AM THE LAW!


lol Nothing about this truck would pass todays standards.

Only lap belts, loud, inadequate lighting, no washer sprayer I could go on and on. The only thing I care about is that it's a bad machine.  ;D
