Another diesel 40 build

I got sidetracked building a shop, school, and family obligations so this 40 went on the back burner. I did pick up some rear leaf springs for it from @lcwizard a few weeks ago which was one of the last puzzle pieces I needed for it. Now I need to order a couple of leafs for the front and start assembling the darn thing to see what I'm missing. I feel like I have 95% of the parts to finish it.

I'm hoping to run power out to the shop in the next couple of weeks after which I'll be able to move the rest of my tools to start working out of the shop.

I got the box fan installed in the gabel today, it looks small in the photo but it's a 50 x 50" box.

Just one two post, probably underneath that "stop ahead" sign. I may get one of those roll around 4 post lifts as well mainly for storage. I couldn't go any bigger as far as footprint so I did 16' walls with plans to have a mezanine and catwalk for storage to hopefully leave some open floor space.
