Ok well here's some more pictures of the business end. Not much to report, but I made some adjustments to the fenders to rout the wires coming out the headlights. Also figured out how I'm gonna mount the bumper, using some doll's house hinges bolted directly to the underneath of the grille, as you have done Brian on your trucks to hinge the hood. That will give me the pivot to flip the bumper up as I'm gonna have clearance issues otherwise! Not mounted the bumper yet, that will have to wait now till the grille is ready.
You can also see how I've secured the front of the body, I made a tab from a scrap piece of frame rail that hooks the horizontal bar behind the grille. Then I'll just make some tabs at the back of the cab on the inside and screw them down

Thanks, I would have bagged it like a 1:1 but to my knowledge there is only one place to get working bags and they ain't cheap!
