Awesome mate, glad to hear it arrived safely & without anything missing. Looks like a lot of work a head but, yet another classic Mopar lives to fight another day, good stuff! I'm in the same boat, picking my 'Cuda up in the next week. Can't wait to get mine and know exactly how you're feeling although I think mine is going more smoothly than yours did? PS: Not that it matters too much but "CAPS" on the Internet signifies YELLING lol.  ;)

A  lot of work to do.  You could have told them not to compact it to get it in the container. :bigsmile: :bigsmile:  Now we expect to see some  :working: :working: :working: pics.
