Well the "To Do" list is shrinking fast. The truck has a great base tune in it and won't take much more to have it spot on. The seat will be done in a few days. All interior panels except the headliner are complete minus covering them in ultra leather.
Things left to do:
Paint Bed
Paint Tailgate
Paint front windshield and Install
Install wiper arm
Make headliner and cover
Cover Interior panels
Bleed brakes about 87 more times.....
Install Seat
BURN RUBBER!!!
Here are a few pictures.
Got my emblems cut and I brushed them, paint filled, and the shot them in SPI matte clear.
Rear window in the right way.... I used urethane and .125 spacers to set the rear window surround exactly .375 off of the window.
Side glass in and sitting outside to charge the A/C
New polished QA1s!

Well a little bad news. The first and second tailgate I got from Mac Hils were a bust. first one was warped from welding the bottom tube on. The second one was completely twisted. I started building my own tailgate today and will have pictures in a few days of what I have come up with.Fabricator @ Hot Rods by George

Great Build! Thanks for sharing.The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.

Tailgate fab work is done. Just need to paint it and polish the top trim.
I picked up my extra material from Phil Cato this weekend at Good Guys and couldn't wait to get to work.
I covered the kick panels, rear cab surround, door panels, and A pillar covers. We also decided to cover the dash instead of having the painted look. I think it turned out great.
