Nice that's still not that bad. I see people around here that still want $4000 to $8500 depending on the shape there in.

Link doesn't work, but I think you are showing me the one with the window actuator for the engine brake? I like it, but its not simple enough for me. I want to rid myself of all electronics, so I don't have to worry abut the heat frying it.

Thanks man! I wish I had more pictures, but with the holidays here, and the fact that I am not doing anything interesting (unless you call sanding interesting...), I don't have much to show, haha.

Its all pretty much wound down until I can get it on the road and tune the turbo and the pump a bit better. Once its on the road, I will be starting a custom bed, which will be great fun!

Custom beds are fun, mine is a little plain Jane but I have plans to dress it up abit. Headache rack and some metal skirts that are level with the bottom of the cab. Go to the "show me your stacks" thread I think mine were the last post, you can see some of the bed

Mine will be a 'stock' bed but with an oak floor, and a custom tool box that surrounds my stack. If it comes out half as nice as I have it pictured in my head, its going to be awesome. Going to have metal strips between the wood slats painted body color, and the tool box will be gloss black to match the stack. Going to get a toneau (sp?) cover custom made (short bed length) to attach to the rear of the tool box and go to the rear of the bed.
I think it will turn out nice.

Well, I don't really use a truck to work, I just bought it for a fun project that I can make some decent power from and thats 4WD for winter use. Not really building it for work, just building it to be what I want it to be.
