Default Progress on the restoration

I'm finally starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel.
I can't believe how much work this '90 Blazer has been. I started with an idea in April '07 and thought I could have it completed this year.....ha ha ha.... What was I thinking!
It took me6 years to restore the '74 but I thought that I could do the '90 in9 months.
It's getting close but it's still at least a month away from completion. I can't wait til it's done so that I can put together a photo album from start to finish. I didn't take pics when I did the '74.
Here's a few pics of the '90

Looks great Rob! I'm going to have to try to entice you to come down and help out on my Chevelle! I should be making more progress between Christmas and New Years as I have the whole week off.

I had to see what the pics on my camera phone turn out like so I figured I'd update the progress a little.
The canopy is on, both doors and both fenders are on and aligned.
The pics aren't great 'cause it's my pics from the phone and the truck is dirty.
