I found the light at the end of the tunnel and it says "EXIT"!

Here are some finished photos for now, I plan on finding a good place for some shots later and a short video. But for now I can say the major items and the main look is done. Thanks for watching the progress of my build of the UP Nort 26T. My next task is the State inspection and Plates.

Thank you for your comments and suggestions during the build, Even if I am a mechanical designer and a marine diesel mechanic by trade in the Coast Guard the vast knowledge you gain when building a T-bucket is exciting to say the least. Would I build the next one the same way someday, no I will change it suspension wise to try something different. Being from Up Nort, it would be an enclosed body build with heat. The seats on this one may get a remake and this time it will get the heated pads in the seats. I would of not liked to screw up the pads with my first upholstery attempt.
