Been neglecting my updates. I got the motor and transfer case rebuilt. Fuel injection, aluminum heads and intake manifold, electronic ignition. Overdrive automatic transmission conversion also done. I will post more when I get time. Here's a little video teaser for now

 
Been awhile so a quick catch up
I finished the welding on the cab, gave it a couple of coats of epoxy primer then did what body work I can without the doors and fenders. Then another coat of primer over that. Also put bedliner tinted to the color the truck is going to be under where rug is going.

I made a jig for my engine hoist so I can get my cab on, then I stripped the tiawan primer off the aftermarket parts and applied epoxy primer. Next I put it all together to do the body work to get all the gaps perfect, then it all comes apart for paint

All the panel fitting and welding is finished. Spot sprayed the epoxy over the welds, time for body work
