Slow going lately. I exploded a disc between c5-c6 vertebrea in my neck and they had to go in and install a titanium replacement.

I did manage to get the front lower section of hood replaced using another bad hood i had lying around. Mine was rotted out in the front and the other was rotted at the back plus had about 30 dents in it. I went ahead and painted the underside and the front inner support before i install it back onto the underside. The black is still wet in photo but will dry matte. I also got the v6 emblems done.

A little more progress. Got metal in inner fenders and cab corners.

Things have been moving slowly. Did get the inner fenders blasted, bodyworked and painted along with the front support and firewall
