wow, thank you Bob! Lots of information! Beautiful truck. I will keep my eyes open for those problem areas if i end up heading up to check out the truck.

Yes money is relatively high on my list of criteria, but again, i am not looking to build this in a year or even two. LOTS of time to put some cash aside to buy what i want and need. Lots of time too look for that hood and grille. So the 40 hood will fit the 41 you are saying? just different trim? I am not looking to build a concourse truck here, lol, just something fun to do with the kid and make some memories. I am young and a bit short on tools, but hey that gives the fiance (soon to be wife) the perfect opportunity for christmas

This is why i love these forums, even in a couple years when i forget a vendors name or something, i can always come back here and refresh. Thanks guys!!! I am glad to be on here and look forward to sharing this build with yall.
