What did you end up doing with the paint ? Did you reshoot it yet ?

Adam, I did reshoot it and it turned out crappy again. I work for a collage and they have a Automotive collison and restoration department there going to paint it for the materials no labor. So just paying for masking tape and laquer thinner and odds and ends.
More progress, the door panels made by my wife fit really well, The rear seat is in and looks nice thanks Ken. Now the last photo the brackets that hang down from the top seat where do they mount? Mine didnt have a seat at all when I got it and i dont see any holes in the vacinity?

They are self threaded nuts welded on place. On mine those bolts were replace with longer ones to install my muffler hangers for my TTI exhaust.

Update I needed storage and a clean look
Josh did you build and cover that?

Scamp Tramp
Yes i did, I did everything on it.
It looks great. I have been thinking about trying it myself for my truck. But I don't want to waste any wood.

wood was MDF like $11 at the hardware store, fabric was $10 on ebay, cup holder was $3 on ebay, $1.84 for hinge at hardware store. Extra vinyl left over from door panels. so $25
That is pretty good. Done with a reasonable price and a little work. But my truck can live without one.

Inteior is about 90% done, few trim pieces, arm rest and kick panels left. Over all not looking too bad, just a basic function inteior without any bells and whistles.
Looks Great Josh

On the car no real progress.. Was waiting for engine block and parts to come back from the machine shop. Ive started assembly some parts didnt work like i had hoped so I had to order more. Still plugging away. Hope to have the short block done this weekend. Really glad some read this even though i havent posted in a bit. Gives me motivation.

short block done... Had an issue with the pick up the one i bought didnt fit. Glad i got a good neighbor... I asked him over to show me what i was doing wrong and determined it was wrong pick up.. Luckly he had one.. Also before putting pan on i put some playdough on the pick up i had about a 1/4 inch or so for clearance this was before everything was tightend down.
