there is still a couple of holes to close up on the fire wall. next up is iβm going to be pulling the cab to paint the frame. all of the body and paint work should be done by carilisle there maybe no drive train or interior in it though.

well now that i have some space to work π work has begun on my dime again.
starting cutting out all the old rear setup to make way for the new.
that is all i got done today before i ate thru the only grinding disk i had. i will be making a trip to home depot tonight and working on it again tomorrow. mainly iβm just waiting for the new motor to get here so i can put the small block in the frame so the cab can be put back on to see where the fire wall will need to be cut to make room for the bigger motor. hope to have everything mocked up in the next couple of weeks so it can be tore back down to preped for paint. should have paint on it by mid to end of july:blue:
