Steve,
I haven't done anything "pic worthy" but Ryan may be priming the remaining parts today. I've fixed some electrical problems, wired the winch, and recovered the seats. I've got the parts to do RDB but I'm reluctant to tear it apart until I finally get it moving again.

Getting closer to checking this out in person, will see it Saturday. You going to come by the pig and show it off for us ?

I'm taking Lylia to the airport on Saturday so I don't think I'll make it to IPOR. Ryan did get most of the remaining parts primed on Sunday so things are moving along. The parts at IPOR aren't very exciting to see: the bed, tailgate, rear flares, tranny hump, upper cab, and roof. I also got the nasty part of the RDB conversion finished Sunday so this thing may finally get finished someday soon.
Black is beautiful. Thanks for the quick consult on the FJC flywheel.

Ryan got the bed sealed plus base coat and clear today so this thing may finally get done. The inside of the bed will get color-matched Raptor bed liner. The roof, upper cab, running boards, tailgate and fender flares will hopefully get done soon so I can get it on the road. I fired it up yesterday so all is good.
Lookin' good 
Sweet. Don't forget to let me drive it.

Those aren't bump stops, that's my 2x4 body lift.

I can see the end from here ...
Well Ryan painted the roof and bezel today and I got the upper cab and tailgate ready to paint. The upper cab , flares, and tailgate need paint and the inside of the bed and tailgate, running boards, and tranny hump need Raptor and it will be ready to reassemble.
