    Well, lots of work to get to this point but the deadline is looming! I have some pics of the bed build but have not had a chance to download them.

    I put a few more hours into the bed than I thought but I am very happy with the results!

    I think the cab corners came out alright too. That build thread is here. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=426777


    Not much time left to get it all together.:eek:

  4. Really nice work. I like Dodge buckets and admire how you've massaged the cab and bed to flow together so well.

    Thanks guys! I'm back at the shop to finish a lot of details that don't show in the pics. Should be ready to tear it apart for paint in a week.(I hope)

    I am still at the shop tonight and working on the headers and baffles. Time is running out.

    My building was a Ford dealership called Alloways and I haven't taken the sign down. Yea I know I need to paint the building too. It's called patina boys!:D Mike
