Starting to come together. Makes you feel better now that you get to put things on instead of taking off. Hey, I dig the yellow trailing arms. You gonna leave them like that, makes them stick out. Pretty cool.

You're doing nothing wrong Longhorn, working on these trucks takes a long time. Most of us have jobs, wives, kids, etc. We are lucky if we can work on the truck a couple of hours a day. It will take me 2 years to finish mine (and then it will never be finished) and I have to tell you there were times I wanted to quit. One thing I noticed is you are the type of person who likes to help others. I appreciate the pictures you have posted for me and others, your input on the board, etc. You must have allot of friends back home.
