Update time..
Got the correct bumper installed. It's not quite as clean as the step side bumper but for $10 bucks I'm not gonna complain. The step side bumper is going up for sale on Craigslist soon. The bed of the truck is acting as storage for the new subfloor and walls that are going in our master bathroom (another project that's been going on for far too long, I'll be glad when that **** is done!)

Today I was able to get all of the wiring squared away in the cab and the dash will go back in soon (hopefully). Got the connector soldered in for the HVAC controls and tested. Also got the tach lead soldered in and tested and added to the harness. Installed the factory correct rear speaker harness and main power source wiring for the stereo (PO hacked the crap out of the factory stereo wiring) that is going back in it. Just have some cleaning to do before the dash goes back in. All of the blend door actuators have been checked out and replaced as necessary.

Got the new multi-function switch installed and the steering wheel back on. Only item left to functionally test is the cruise control.

Every single ground point on the truck has been inspected and repaired as necessary. The TBI unit was nasty as hell so I cleaned that up with some Berryman's and also power washed the engine compartment. Changed the oil and a bunch of other small ****...
Been keeping a daily watch on Craigslist for some stock 18" GMC wheels that I want to put on it. I figure with Christmas coming there's gonna be GI's in our area getting new wheels & tires for their trucks and hopefully land a good deal on the wheels I want.
Still got a lot to do...little by little.
