Looks good. The key to window tint is baby shampoo.

I just mix some in a squirt bottle and they completely drench the film and window.

So whats left to make it a runner?

loom/tuck harness, relocate battery and install fuel system. it's close but everything seems to take 10x longer than it should.

I like it Stew. The truck is coming together nicely. Take your time, do it right. Don't get in a hurry just to redo it later.

I'm sure it's in one of these 9 pages that I'm too lazy to look in, but what does this weigh? Thinkin about puttin my 370 in an older square body s10.

it took me about an hour. it's my last tint job. it wouldn't have cost much more to have a pro do it. i did it myself because i couldn't drive it to the tint shop and the fish bowl look was killing me.

i'm hoping to have it around 3,200 with me in it. the square bodies are lighter. wishing i went that route but i couldn't pass the deal on this truck
