Amazing work.

Hmm Front signals? or Stamped bezel? Looks awesome Gary.. Cryin shame the bugcatchers hit the cage! How's the Bugcatcher gasket go in? I'm guessing it was just the knob that was hitting the cage? Could you mount them upside down or something?

| Gary, the truck looks killer, can't wait to see it in person! I have my truck running great, so you won't have anything to worry about when we trade for the day next Tuesday. I figure by then you'll be sick of looking at it and you'll be missing your 62 anyway.

| He forgot virgin.
I did some last minute painting today. The parts I got from Butch were perfect, just needed glass beading, priming and paint. Finished today. Nothing like getting right down to the wire. I still ran out of time to do the bed right, get a new back window, etc, but it will have to wait.
