    Made some more progress trimming grill shell for flush billets inserts. Had to add two more bars to fill in where it usually has cutout for the imbedded bowtie. Also had some acrylic trim pieces made to have flush mounted parking lamps with no exposed screw head.

    lol yeah I thought about that, but it’s strictly a cruiser so far from few time I wouldn’t be near the truck. And it’s bolted from the inside to the bed, separate from the tank bolt downs.

    Reduced a bit more wires from the engine bay passenger bulkhead. I’ll be running the AC cables behind the Accumulator and relocating the power junction to be hidden, and finally rerun the wiper cables to the driver bulkhead. Then weld up holes and existing bulkhead cutout for smoother firewall...

    Thanks! I’ll be customising an ice chest to fit over and hide the tank, along with some other items. As for the interior, it was a rust prevention/sealer.

    Great looking truck to start with. Def get the front fenders rolled tight and research which spindles won’t push out the track width. DJM/McGaughys are minimal or spring for Reacts, but if you want full setup go control arms and coil over. The rear I would consider a nice under bed notch and...
