Joe,
Looks great!....
I advise making a "roll cage" for the radiator. Trust me... You WILL roll over and knock the neck off or smash it in eventually.....
I've already smacked this one a couple of times:

I take it you solid bolted the cab to the frame? What's to keep that cage from tearing the sh¡t out of the cab? I know my K5's frame tweaks a lot when flexed (probably 3-4" between the front of the frame and the crossmember in front of the rear axle.) I have no front sheetmetal either.
The cab is still bolted on with the stock rubber mounts. When the cage is finished, the body and frame will be tied together in as many places as I can find. I'm hoping I'll be able to stiffen it up enough that the cage won't tear anything apart. If it does, I'll burn that bridge when I get there.
