Updates 1/1/11

Wow... is it really 2011 already?!? Well, the great thing about that is that THIS IS THE YEAR THIS TRUCK GETS FINISHED! It was purchased in '93, so this project has taken approximately 18 years to complete! It's been a long journey, but we're nearing the finish line!

These are some of the updated photos over the last month or two... enjoy!

Troy has been working on the brake and fuel lines:

This is a picture of the custom fabricated bumper--completely original!

This is a photo of the truck with a wheel from one of Troy's hot rods on the back (this is a 17-inch rim). The truck will sit lower when it's finished...

This is a photo of the tilt hood bracket:

This is the tailgate latch. We'll try to replace the red plastic knob with a steel or aluminum piece. We're also working on some type of tailgate bracket... more on that later.

These are the wheels we ordered, which should be in any day now (the 1st week of January). 18's on the back, 17's on the front.
