Its Hot Rod time!

Quite a bit of progress has been made on the truck the past few weeks.. Check out the pics!

We now have the new starter mounted.. Looks like a good quality starter. Thats good because I can't wait to fire this bad boy up!

New steel braided fuel lines installed (shown with new fittings, fuel filter, fuel pump, and pressure gauge)

The fuel system is now ready.. Today we installed the final piece of it.. the fuel sending unit in the tank.

The new steering column is installed.. Joe and Steve from the shop had to modify the firewall slightly to allow clearance for the mounting brackets.

The new instrument cluster fit perfectly, and as you can see the steering wheel looks awesome.. The steering wheel is not fully put together yet because we were only using it for fitting purposes. (Not shown is the leather half wrap and a bowtie horn button)

The new roll pan is going to look great! It will be reinforced and then installed with LED lights.

These are the LED light strips to be installed in the roll pan (The red lenses will be flush with the contour of the roll pan).

The inner fenders are now in place.. Quite a bit of custom work was required to get these tubs to fit the way we wanted them to.

As you can see, the inner fenders look great on the truck and give us plenty of space for the wheels. Now we just need to paint and fit the new bedwood and we'll have ourselves a pickup bed!
