So it has been a minute since my last post. Well in the past year we moved across the country and had another young one! I am now stationed in VA and the humidity is killing me and my truck. All the parts that i had media blasted in utah that has 5% humidity are all going to be re done. I have been plugging away at the truck slowly, its hard with two young ones, not wanting to steal time from them but yet trying to get a good balance with everything. Shannon (Wife) got me a nice 60 gal 220 3 phase air compressor for fathers day and I just bought a sandblaster last week. Well, let me just say its amazing how nice it is when you have an air compressor that will push enough air to do the job your trying to do! I will post some pictures of progress as it comes along. I sold one of my four wheelers to fund the rest of my parts needed to finsh the build up minus wheels and paint. I have a pile of door window seals, hood cowl seals, dynomat, emerganecy brake kit, exhuast system, windsheild wiper kit, smoked glass and a wood bed kit just waiting for me to have the time to do it all. I have thought about sending the wife, mother inlaw and kids on a vacation for a week and I stay home on my own vacation! Hope all is well with all that have given advice and help during this build.

Ok, well I have been working on the front of the noseclip. I have never done much "hammer and dolly" body work but this is how the front of the truck nose is looking right now. I am pretty happy with it, still neds some of the lower bars straightend a smidge, but from where it started looking like the guy pushed logs and cows with to this, I am pretty proud of myself.

one more of it on the truck.
