    Thank you.

    Thanks, I wish I knew who made that cover, it was on the truck when I bought it. I really like it. Its made out of galvanized steel and aluminum and its also insulated. I have walked on it before. Thats 250+ pounds!

    Auto Parts Train say they have the wheel houses online. Has anyone heard good or bad from them?

    We just tossed it on there. I will fit it up better later.

    I'm not sure what you're asking there.

    Just read about your chevy. You really have a great body shop. Grand pa really took good care of that truck.

    Its getting closer. Thanks

    It was a pretty good paint job, and my Grandpa always kept that truck under a shed and would tell me I needed to put it under one when he saw it out.

    My Grandpa also used his truck as a truck, I used to help him load sticks of fire wood into it out in the middle of the back forty when I was younger. I also remember hitting the side of the truck with the wood when I missed the bed. So i was responsible for a few of those dents.

    Any way my Dad and I got a little more done on the 4x4. The inner structure is all welded in and we primed and seam sealed it, and I also put a fresh coat of black on the front.

    I agree. The wheel and tire combo I had on it before would not balance. It was wobbly at 75 mph. I had these current wheels laying around. All they needed was some freshening up. The tires I just swapped with my chevy. It's now laying frame on 31x10.50s. That's kind of cool. Lol.
