Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Apr 2009 Posts: 554 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2009 Posts: 554 | I got the cab mounted on my chassis last weekend. This was a real milestone for me since I can start reassembling in earnest now. The reassembly really started after I painted the frame but this is a much more visible sign of progress. I still have final bodywork and paint to do on the rear fenders and bed but everything else is ready to go back on the truck.

Hey doc, that is one ugly dog ya got there, put her in the front seat and you'll never have to worry about anyone stealing your truck. But her pups are cute.
