So Monday night we spent some fitting the fenders and dealing with some clearance issues. And got the doors semi working.

Tuesday night we went to fetch some parts. A local atv group volunteered some to lug some parts for us.

Yes we know it’s a ford box but it was free and we were on time crunch. It will do
 
Pretty cool that you can go into the woods and get parts. Looks like the build is making good progress.

It’s a build from last year. But I thought I would post it up. You will have to keep following along to see the end result. There’s stuff in the woods every where. Wasn’t many places to bring your old cars until in the 80’s they started collecting it up. Stuff that was hard to get at or grown in got left behind

The final chapter

A local artist said he to drop the truck off at his place becuase he wanted play with it... so off it went.
And this is how it looked when I showed up to get it....

So then I went to the local cruise spot. I parked the truck and it was like something from the walking dead. I had to get away pretty fast they swarmed over.

After that I was steady putting kids in and out of it all night.
