Long night but I got my bumper and rock guard on the front! I picked up some new shocks and an oil change still have a few small things to do but it's closer!

Picked up a little side job this winter. I'm gonna get this 52 all mounted and rolling for a buddy of mine. I'm just doing the big stuff as far as fabrication it will be steering and have brakes before it leaves.

I only use s10 frames. He wants this one long so we are using a extra cab frame and not cutting it down. This truck originally had a 9foot bed so I will be cutting a minimal amount out of it.

Kool builds and fast work. You must be young to have that much energy. LOL I was like that several years back. I miss it bad now.

Keep at it. Great skills.
