Well... I have 3 weeks B4 the big show. I've been slowly but surely gettin' all the pieces made for the flooring etc, ordering parts, so on & so forth. I should button the interior up this weekend & start on the engine accessories, gas tank & finally wiring! Tripper Jr's soming in a couple of weeks to help me knock the wiring out! Today I sprayed the Sanderson headers flat black!

Parts, parts & more parts!!!
I ordered nearly every part left on my truck & they should be here in he next few daze. I have 2 weeks to go & should be puttin' in a lot of garage time between now & then! I finally got a Walker radiator & am very excited!!! I'm gonna remove the black paint off the top tank to expose the brass... I love that look. Nearly every alum radiator I've ever had spang a leak & are harder & more expensive to repair than a real old fashioned copper & brass one! A quick cup of coffee & I'm back to it! [[[

Keep it up Bob, you'll make it. Pre-show thrashing is half of the fun.

Gastrick,
After reviewing the parts I ordered today... I'm questioning how much fun I'll actually be having over the next two weeks! [S[

It's just a little surface rust!

Yeah, but think of the fun you'll have after the next 2 weeks when you're driving and going to shows! Hang in there Bob, it'll all be worth it!

Lookin' great, Bob! 'Course it's also lookin' a little expensive But hey, if you got it rod it! No sense in skimping on the parts you really want if you can afford 'em... plus it helps the project get done faster! I think you're gonna make it just in time!

I like those pedals. They are a big time saver if you want the drilled look.
