Thanks John. I appreciate it.

Been trying to stay busy on this project as we only have about a month left before we will be moving. If someone has any interest in it, please let me know. I will make a good deal on it if it means I dont have to move it with me.

Seam sealed the interior last week. For anyone looking for the BEST seam sealer, there is a picture of it below. Made by PPG and is called Semkit. It is aircraft fuel tank sealant. 2 parts that mix together in the tube then is dispensed with a caulking gun (pneumatic gun usually). It works excellent, nothing will touch it (acetone, lacquer thinner, gas, diesel, MEK, nothing...) and will stay flexible forever. It bonds extremely well and can be used as an adhesive to some degree. I remove this stuff from military equipment that was in Vietnam, and it is still just as good as the day it was applied. It is expensive, but check ebay for good deals...outdated stuff works just fine for our needs.

I also was able to get the inner fender panels made up. I made the steel parts to graft into the stock sheetmetal, punched the obround holes in the factory locations, and even put the VIN number in the original OE locations. From there, I made aluminum panels that span from the upper pieces down to the frame rails. Definitely cleans stuff up nicely. I dont think I will paint them as of now...

I also added a gusset to the front of the front leaf spring mounts, tying the 2 individual brackets together as one. It looks more complete and helps to keep everything together.
