Yep, moving along really good, by end of this weekend, should be down to just a few things. The biggest thing, fuel cell, gonna have a custom tank made to fit in the very back, with a street rod fuel door in the body. Gonna be expensive, but will be cool and I wouldnt have to open back doors to fill up.

Looks great. Did you buy the wheel tubs or make them? The workmanship on the rails and floor looks very good. I'm interested to see the gas door. I have a similar situation on my van project so it will be good to see what you do and how it works out.
