well i got a bit of work done this weekend.

to a rather quick.

 

taking the plastics off to get to the carpet.

 

and after we got the carpet out i was suprised at what we found.

the worst bit of rust in it.

other then that it looked really good.

and after a bit of sanding and a shot of flat black till we primer it.

 

getting it ready for the cage to go in and then going to start to install the 97 dash and seats.

Benz Spring in Portland.Or. can make a set,takes 2 days I think and their price seems good.For lift springs,I was thinking Hellscreek.I want suspension travel so I,m staying SUA w/a lift shackle and 3" pack probably. Good progress on the truck :thumbsup: . I,m jealous, looks like you have access to good equipment. Look forward to more. :cheers:
