      Looks awesome! What brand are the wheels? Very good choice.
      Also, probably just the camera angle and lack of alignment, but the rear of the upper control arms look like they rest on the frame?

      Thanks! Those are Coys C33 aluminum smoothies. 18x9.5. They came with baby moon caps but I'm kinda digging it without them. Looks a little more sinister.
      There is about 1/4 inch clearance on the upper control arms. Must be the angle of the pic.

      Lookin' good!!

      I think anyone who's made lines has done that a time or two. Sucks when you get so excited that you just bent the perfect line and then see the problem. Kinda makes you wanna go buy yourself an ice cream cone to forget the pain. ;) lol!

      I got the firewall from Direct Sheetmetal. Excellent fit and pretty straight forward install. About a full days work.

      Well house projects and a vacation made a slight interruption to progress but I'm back at it!

      Lots of painting yesterday. Fendes, Inner fenders, core support. Mounted my radiator...






      I promised myself I wasn't going to make the truck too nice so I wouldn't want to drive it in the rain and crappy roads, but the engine compartment is really turning out better than I was thinking! Argh!

      Installed the glass with the help of my dad. MAN WAS THAT A PAIN IN THE ASS.

      It took us 4 tries and about 6 hours to get the windshield in but after reading tricks and calling a local shop for more tips, we finally were victorious. The back glass was relatively easy.



      Got my sun visors in:



      Installed the steering column and shifter bracket. It all JUST fits around the Caddy:



      Mounted the fuse panel from American Autowire. Very nice kit.

      Also got the brakes bled, so now my truck stops and steers!!!



      Started wiring the gauge panel...

      Man the more I see the more I like. This truck is gonna be very cool when it's done!

      I really dig this color combo, for a while I've thought of what car I would paint like this. A few months ago I talked my son into doing this with his pro-touring V8 S10 build, it'll be getting painted 2017 Toyota Tacoma tan with black trim and wheels.

      I love that color that you're taking about. I'm really a fan of non-metallic single stage paints. They really pop.
      Another color I love is that grey they put on the new Dodge Challengers.

      Got the dash panel all wired up. This American Autowire kit is amazing. They thought of everything. It really makes this easy and fun.






      Continuing with the wiring...
