Was that a factory squarebody option? Had to of been 89-91 only if it was. I thought you swapped it from something else.

I'm really happy this went easier than I thought, getting the fan shroud to fit. It's not perfect but, it in there tight and should not move.

Have to put something on top to close the gap.

Cut the corners up top and got the brackets to hold it on.

Doesn't look like much but I'm hysterical that it is at least beginning to resemble a truck again.

Dolly out - front wheels on. Going to have to take that front bar off and re-adjust the tie rod ends. Right side is in as far as it will go - left side has threads showing. Its close but the wheels still have a touch of that Marty Feldman eyes look from straight on.

Would have had the rear brakes and wheels on but as expected, the fk-ups at FedEx lost the 3rd package in a row. Would be nice if Rock didn't wrap the boxes in tape that advertises just what the filth that work at FedEx will be stealing. Figured they were the best of the 3 (UPS, USPS), but seems it doesn't matter - they're all run and operated by woke 3rd world parasites.

Got most of the interior lighting wires run last night. 3 door switches are in and the cargo lamp is installed and working (though only if the interior lights are on).

Just got the front passenger door switch to run. I think I’m going to have to drill a hole into the A pillar though. I see a cutout in the dashboard but unlike on the drivers side it doesn’t go through.

If you look closer, you will notice the fan I placed to enhance the dry time of the floor coating I put down. Have no worry's, beer fridge already has a designated spot!

Hell. Yes!

Mocked up the grille, bezels, bumper and bull bar after the completion of the radiator/rad support. What do we think?

My brother had restored the grille from the Suburban and painted the middle line silver to kind of go for a '76 grille kind of look.

Later pulled in my '80 to solve my brake issue, repair diff pinion seal and transmission rear seal AND even my speedo gear finally! Right into the rear brakes (in which i have yet to pull since ownership) the passenger side wheel cylinder is leaking, and on the driver side the wheel cylinder rod wasn't in place and the cylinder piston was froze up! I'll have good brakes now! (I've almost died quite a few times)
