1)Frame off, sandblasted and painted.
2)Leaf Spring Removed and traction bars added
3)All new front and rear brake componets
4)All new Energy Suspension bushings and cab mounts
5)New Ball Joints and Coil Springs
6)New Shocks
7)New heater Core
8)New blower motor, a/c evaporator, receiver dryer
9)New cab corners and rocker panels.
10)Firewall painted and bottom of cab painted
11)Cab re-installed and engine in for mock up
12)Auto Meter Guages Installed
13)95% of wiring completed

Hoping by April it will be running and ready for paint.

Sounds like a restore job. Cool! I agree keeping it neat and organized will help later on for apperance and if any problems arise. They will be easier to chase down.

Looking good, wish I did a frame up restore on mine, but I did a quickie low buck conversion in 5 months and on the road, all I need now is a HotRodAir condenser to finish my A/C... Keep us posted, looks like your getting close...
