hey guys. another update.
pretty progressive day today. all started with some paint, for the rest of the panels including doors and hood.
next i modified my stock hood release cable to fit in behind the grille instead of running into the cab. i just crimped the line over itself with some metal crimp pieces. pretty simple modification
also got my new door light switches installed, these were pretty simple as well. i got these out of a Chevy HHR and they work great. even come with a clip connector so if i happen to break one off i can just unplug and plug a new one in. 10 times better than the original ford door switch
got the doors installed and the hood as well. i let the paint bake in the sun for a while to harden up. went well. just have to adjust the shining a little to fit the sides of the truck
and the final masterpiece for the day. this is how it sits now. super close. just a couple of days left until its first drive!!
