    Charlie and I put the dash rail on yesterday and I measured to make some inner door pieces.
    Charlie and his buddy Paul put the horn on and bumper and finished up the wiring.

    it is cold in Charlies garage, he took the bed sides and fenders down into the ba*****t and primed. then painted the fenders and added the reflectors to cover the old light holes.
    I cut a sheet of plexiglas for the rear window and installed it for Charlie. he had the rubber gasket left over form his other build.
    the to-do list is getting smaller, Charlie is not sure what color he will paint the body. Blue, black or?
    I am trying to make some time to finish the welding up, should get more time after the holidays.

  12. It is coming together rather smartly. My vote for paint is blue with black fenders, but I am partial to dark blues, keep up the good work. A picture for consideration regarding paint. I can remove it if it clutters up your build. E7BC9BD7-393E-4BFA-B4F7-07E4A3AB703F.jpeg

    thanks, when I made the door patches I made them long enough to do both the door and the cowl. "down and dirty"
