    Another day...and another day not done. But I am closer. I just need to add a stop under the cab, build out a front bumper point, finish trimming up stuff, decide welding method where I grafted in cab corners, and add bumper holes. I did add another connection point up front. Hoping the driver side isn't 1.5 weeks like this has been.

    Actually the dash center badge makes it a 51 or 52, the 53 had the plastic "DODGE" badge. As for the truck project in general, brigning home and gettting back on the road some family history is fun!

    Well, I start work at 430 or 5AM (still get up w/o an alarm clock...dang dairy farm kids) and get done 8ish hours later. eat quick and head out to the shop, work till 5 or 530, then into the house for supper and some quality time with the wife. Once summer rolls around I'll go back out for work after eating and avoid TV....I get bored easily, so I build (trucks or woodworking). I appreviate the aknowledgement!
