Sorry for the lack of updates. Lots of progress.
Engine went to the shop, crack in the crank, crack in the head, big chunk out of the exhaust manifold so full rebuild and a bunch of replacement parts but runs good and looks good now. Installed it and cleaned up, painted and installed all the accessories.

Can metal repair is done. Lower part of the cab and under the seats was pretty rotten so mostly new.

Image

Front fenders were really rough but got patch panels from MSeries Rebuild and got the rest of the holes sorted out too.

Winch is all rebuilt, no progress shots of that. One fender is one, just need to prime up a few more pieces and the other can go on. Remaining parts are at the blaster now. Hoping to have it all together and ready for the paint shop by the end of summer. Mechanically it is all done and working great. Added the full red and Orange signal and brake light doors from Midwest Military which I think are a great addition.

Not sure why the images don’t scale. Just open them in a new tab to see the whole thing.
