Wow, you have a nicely set up shop! Who makes that building? That is a great way to do it. You have a lot of nice vehicles and projects too!
Thanks! The website for the sips (building) is:

Chris also built my house using sips. He is a great guy and very easy to work with.
I decided to try to use the factory headlights and buckets, set up street rod style. I installed one today. They move with the steering. The tubing between the shock mounts is just a temporary brace as another punched support will be added.

Went ahead and installed the other headlight, though I am not sure that I will keep them. Added bracing to the shock towers but still need to finish welding and smooth. Removed temporary brace. Trimmed the bottom of the doors and started a template for a rocker panel.

Very slick; are you going to build a bed for it?
Made a steering wheel today. Very strong and uses a quick release coupling.
