My painter sprayed the cab yesterday and sent me this pic on from his phone:

Korbin is going over there this afternoon to drop off the rear fenders and steps and pick up the cab so that we can set it on the chassis. This really helped Korbin's spirits on get the truck together. IF it all goes right the next few days, we are shooting to have the truck rolling by Sunday night.

Sick build, can't beat red.

Very productive weekend for the truck. We got a bunch of work done. Fuel tank mounted and pump wires ran to the front, exhaust in, front suspension back together, engine and trans back in, drive shaft fits, and the cab is on back on the frame for the last time. I did not get a picture of the cab on the frame last night, completely forgot before it got dark outside.

Our front wheels should ship from aewheel today. We hope they got it right this time...

Dang Karl! You and Korbin do some outstanding work!!! Super cool project!!

I gotta say this is probably my favorite build going on right now....and I'm not really a truck kind of guy, so that says something!

We got the cab on and a bunch of stuff done. Glass went in today. Here are some pics, the last one is at 11:45 pm last night after getting the engine started in the truck for the first time.

Momma is happy! The rest of us where just too tired to care...

We got it together enought to take it for a spin around the block and loaded onto a trailer to take it to the show in Austin unfinished, but we had a great time.

Here is Korbin and I at the show. The truck still needs alot of work to make it a daily driver, but it was enough to get to the show and have a great time.

Proud Mom and her baby...

Here is a cool pic my son put together with pic stitch:

I'll get more pics as we work on the interior and the other parts that need to be finished up.
