Thanks for the motivation AND the props! The only thing I can think if right now that I NEED is a header. That way i can get the motor installed, fab up my crossmembers, route exhaust, and set up the rear suspension. So I need to get the funds to get a header. The plan is as follows... Get the chassis finished, install drivetrain, get the body put on, sheetmetal, bed is getting a pre 93 S10 raised bedfloor, and then my wife will drive it with the body as is till we get all the bugs worked out. Then we will blow the truck back apart, fix the bugs, bodywork, and paint. Its a long road ahead boys! But we do have paint picked out!

Got some on the way from MMW! Taylor hit me up about some we discussed about a month ago, and we've got something up our sleeve!

Sorry there's been no progress. There's been no extra money, and no extra time, but hopefully something will come together soon.

Thank you. I wish I had time and motivation to work on this thing, but we've got a lot going on.
