Driver's License: Na not yet, soon I hope.
Here are some updates of what I have done with my truck stuff
First off I rebuilt my rear spring packs: I took it all apart, then sanded it, followed by primer along with flat black paint, and in the end I reassembled them followed by one more coat of flat black paint then stored them away temporarily.
I have assembled a pair of Shackle Eye Hangers and they're ready to be installed.
I have tried a couple different colors of green and this is the one I like the most of the color selections.
This color is Deep Jewel Green Metallic.
How do you guys store your painted parts until ready for use?
I was thinking about wrapping them in newspapers until I was ready to go get my truck.
I should have some more updates by the middle of next week.
Oh, by the way, that is a photo of my little brother, not me.

Heres some pics for you guys this is the project truck itself
Getting some suspension parts ready to make it a roller so I can trailer it home.
Now here is the parts donor
What the truck will donate to my truck is: the hood, axles, and the rest will be scrapped or parted out.

He thinks so, but he don't have a tenth the ambition required!
He was at the shop all day today sitting at a computer playin' games. I think he managed to get one leaf spring packed disassembled and cleaned up. He's learnin' yet, he's got long way to go.I'll admit i'm not a very good teacher though. I'm somewhat impatient, demanding and sometimes short tempered. I need to work on that! I'm sure Motormouth will agree!
