I just found this and man it is great brother....keep us updated on this build, very interesting

Thanks Tattoodaddy,,, I got the motor mounted back in the frame hopefully for the last time. It took longer than I had planned because I decided to change the color on the motor. Next is to get brake and fuel lines run and get the cab ready for primer and paint

The frame and all the bracing looks fantastic

Cabs in primer ,,,,Going to let it cure another week before i paint it . I have'nt decided on a color yet I'm going to the paint store in the morning to look at my choices. I'm kinda leaning towards a flat gunmetal grey. The radiator shroud is the last part to get in primer so I'm going to work on it tomorrow

Nice work, getting close.

Sometimes putting a primer on the body can "kick start" a slow build, yours is doing good.

Beautifull

All the painting is finally done and I'm ready to get everything back on the frame. So I hope to have it all back together this weekend

obama · « **Reply #19 on:** September 04, 2011, 07:13:20 AM »

Cool
and wired too?
look's finished, is it?

RangerRat · « **Reply #20 on:** September 04, 2011, 06:42:24 PM »

No it looks more done than it is. I've got alot left to do but I wanted to get all the painting done so I could get it all back together and not taking up so much garage space. I've got machine and welding jobs that are backing up here in the shop that I've got to stop and do.

Greybeards Customs · « **Reply #21 on:** September 04, 2011, 06:54:18 PM »

Even if it's not finished you still get the feeling of completion and extra floor space in the shop . You have achieved a major advance in the build , good work .

Dustin Arnett · « **Reply #22 on:** September 05, 2011, 01:16:42 AM »

That's awesome!!! Can't wait to see what you choose to build next.... I say you go back a few decades & let us see what you can do with an antique...... Keep up the good work brotha!!

obama · « **Reply #23 on:** September 05, 2011, 09:11:27 AM »

Understand the shop space thing,
amazing how a small car/truck project takes up the room of three full sized cars.
keep us posted.

RangerRat · « **Reply #24 on:** October 19, 2011, 07:12:53 PM »

I have'nt got anything more done on the hotrod still working on jobs here in the shop hope to be done this weekend and I'm ready to get back at it. My buddy Dave is in Atlanta and he's going to pick my dash out of a 53 Ford truck for me this week. He put a dash out of a Ranger in his 53 and it fit perfect so I thought I'd do just the opposite.
