Zipper, concerning me making reproductions of that lower piece of sheet metal, I havnt got to it yet. I was a rookie then (smile) and I have been schooled now.

I finally got it on the road to shake it down, boy, what a lot of work. So much more I cant even tell you. I was being a little (or a lot!)optimistic with my time estimates back then (a few weeks ago)

Its on the road but that little piece of sheet metal is the least of my problems at the moment.

I will let you and others know if I ever get to it.

I do love the truck, I can tell you that!!!
