I don't have a picture of the clutch master cylinder but the one I am using is stock for an 80s model Chevrolet.

Transmission and transfer case shifters in the cab, keeping it "period correct".

Recently I've been working on mounting the radiator and the inner cooler on the core support, it has been pretty difficult but I think I've got it. Here is a picture of it almost done. I've also removed the bed and started cleaning and painting the frame.

North Central Ok.
Looks good man, I'll have so swing by sometime after work and check it out. I like the way you made the cross members, what thickness tubing did you make them out of?

Sorry there haven't been any updates, I'm at a stopping point right now, I'm waiting on my wiring harness.

Just a quick update, everything on the fuel system is complete. I built a steel tank that mounts in stock location on the drivers side. It holds 29 gallons. It was a tight fit and I had to trim some of the cab. With the tank mounted, I plumbed in all new lines, to a fass 150 and then lines to the stock fuel cooler, from there I ran lines to the engine. Will post pics as soon as I get new ones, I lost my old phone in the river on memorial weekend. Still waiting for my harness, literally can't do anything else until I get it.

Here is a pic of the outside of my frame rail where the fass 150 is mounted, picture is horrible, you can kinda see my tank in the background.
