A different truck build thread

[GB SISSON]

Had some visitors this afternoon, But I came close to completion by supper.. Mail goes out tomorrow at 2pm, so I can drill some holes to mount windshield, and both bumpers in the morning. Gotta figure out some grill bars too. Front bumper was a slice off the side of some old 1/2" steel hydraulic line, rear bumper from a scissor-lock off an old wood stepladder. Windshield is small square stock, a shiskabob skewer. Headlights are short 3/8" carraige bolts. Steering wheel 1/8 and 3/16 rod. Had trouble finding 4 matching 1/4-20 axle bolts. I drilled holes in maple axle blocks undersized and thread them in. Tailgate glued in fixed. Burning out on this, but a pretty fun exercise.
