The Electric Windows are installed and working properly. I had the glass custom cut to a template I made. The store bought glass just did not fit to my liking. The fits great now.

That truck is bloody gorgeous.
It's not in-your-face shouting: 'Look at me look at me!'
It's waaay more subtle; but would still stand out in a crowd.
You did a great job with it.johnboy

Some mistakes are too much fun to be made only once.

I hope the younger generation takes notes from your work.
That truck is smoother than Crown Royal peach on ice..
Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.

"...... It was a heck of a lot of work but I'm really getting to enjoy it now. It almost seem worth it.lol ......"
Your at the pay off stage, they're a lot of fun to build but to stand back and look at it or motor on down the road and think "I DID THIS" is a big part of what it's about. Comments from other are just icing on the cake.
Enjoy, you done good.
.I've NEVER seen a car come from the factory that couldn't be improved.....

Yeah, almost no one deals with old cars these days. I have a car in the garage myself, and I like to poke around in it after work. I've been a truck driver for three years now, and I take good care of my car. I wash it every week, but I have to hand it to you, the car is given to me in the best condition. I asked my principal where he purchased it, and he gave me the website https://www.truckexporter.co.uk/. I negotiated there to buy an older car that I sit over in the evenings and repair. I think I spend more time with the car than with the girls.Last edited by Linaberd; 11-09-2021 at 01:28 AM.
