I will try to get some pictures today on the status of things on the 32.
Brief recap:
- Both front drums and brake systems are in review. Found a couple things.
- The gear shift lever is out for repair
- Incorrect reflectors and bed lights have been removed from sides.
- All the wood on the bed has been removed.
- Decision has been made to keep the patina look on the truck rims. (not blast and paint. exterior of spoke portion)
- engine, well nothing yet.
- I have gone through a couple rolls of paper towels, wiping the drool off of it when friends come over!
- The truck is starting to grow on me.
- The wife and I are talking again!
Regards,
Chris

In regards to the split rims. Make sure the mounting services on the wheel and ring are clean and rust free. Don't want to have a ring fail to seat properly and come loose, either while mounting or sometime down the road. But then I'm sure you know this. Can't say enough about your truck. Looking forward to continuing updates.
