thanks for your reactions cliff, bob and gilles it is good to hear.
you probebly right about we are to hard for ourselfs when we do this restoration work.
keith, I want to go with the chevy to arnhem this year, but i still have alot to do before i can register the truck and go on the road so

up and i try. I will be working on it for 3 weeks on a row (no holyday) this summer so maybe it's finisht by then

but first i placed the wiring for the rearlights in so i can place the floorplate on the frame and a seat to go and make a proof drive before building the cab.
only one problem was the seats they were bolted straid on the floor and one was cut 4 inch short ???
so i have to correct this before driving the truck. ad dirk leegwater we found the parts that belong under the seats and made the missing 4 inches for the other seat. so time for a

cheers jaap
