Was checking out that fine looking specimen in the reflection of my bed. 😁

Urban sunset.

Bed is getting polished up, finish it up this coming weekend. I used some deck sealer on the bottom side of the bed wood and had em blacken it up, threw in some shiny bits that are waiting around for installation. I'll rub in body paint diluted with acetone on the top side as well as teak...

Test fitting these interior panels.

Still a ways out but with luck I'll have my own junk there this year? Anyone else wanna join us?

Power steering hoses on, wiring and some cooling items I think we could fire this turd up? Still gonna be awhile though, back to sanding.

Tightening bolts, adding fluids, touching up paints, wiring. Added a spinny tube thing to make tires go burn.

Almost getting there along the Weber. Riverdale city has the trail closed off along the train yard area so I went along I-84 till I had to turn around.

How it started, many years before I bought it, my cousin intended to build it, the frame was scrapped and that engine he still has. My frame was pulled out of a garbage pile in Greenville, Utah sometime in the late 1960s by my father and uncle.

Went for a little burn on the BMX today to check out the Weber river, looks like Riverdale city is already getting bags out. Maybe I'll go check it out some more as it warms up.

Just need to do a little fine tuning on the panels and they can come out for upholstery, also haven't made the door panels yet. Should be able to get next door soon and finish sanding the bed and get that put back on. You can see the scrap piece of leather hanging in there, going to be lots...

Not sure if he's dabbled in headliner stuff yet, but I'm under the impression he really wants me to be out showing this truck off so potentially more work for him? He's an airgas guy during the day.

Still plugging away at all these little projects waiting on better temps to finish bodywork and paint. Got an ABS plastic headliner and we continued down the cab cutting and forming from the window down so this stuff can also get upholstery. Stuffing some 4x10" speakers in the cab corners...

Probably do a walk around video, still not the same hearing a video vs feeling and hearing it in person.

Changed headers over to Sanderson, rebuilt from header to flexpipe and then painted it all up. Kick panels built so they can get upholstery. Subwoofer box built as well.

Guess it's that time of year already, maybe I can start joining them sometime this year?

Death anniversaries are always a punch to the gut, lost this Guy 7 years ago today, while it's easier it still hurts. F*#@ cancer! I know he's cheering us on to get this pickup done, he was super excited about it when I started and he's the inspiration behind the build. So to me it's way more...

Well not me cause I'm doing overtime at the actual job. My brother and his neighbor got started on the upholstery for the Fordy Stalker, gonna look sharp I think. All the top panels on the center console are easily removable sheet metal and magnets on two of them so I can access underneath...

Only road it's gonna see for awhile is the road between the garage and the trailer?

So we're cruising our trucks together this summer?
