I hear you, bro. Same here; just when things seem to be slowing down, 10 more things pop up.

Looks like good progress to me , That's gonna be a sharp ride . ( I would take it the way it is , no problem )

 

[whytesmoke]

Thanks Gregster but i think my grandfather would roll over in his grave if i ever let it go.

Great build.
What are the second set of side steps for the bed? I have 2 sets and am just flipping one set side to side and so the curve fits the rear fender.

also is that a new grill?

 

[whytesmoke]

The side steps on this truck ran from front fender to back on both sides ,and the grill is orginal i just have all crome slats off right now .
