Thanks! I can't imagine myself ever wanting to sell my truck but you just never know what the future brings you. If that day ever does come I'll be sure to let you know.

I won't have the money soon either. It's pretty hard to find a job these days so now I've four years of studying before me instead. So both my '66 Cadillac, '59 Buick and my old GM truck has to wait - even though one of them is the absolute top priority.

I understand, I don't wanna sell my '66 Volvo either. It's a cheap and reliable daily driver. (gas is at least twice as expensive here)

Got to see your truck finally out in Ohio. Big thumbs up man. Really dig it! I need to find one of those hot wheels.

Thanks man, I appreciate it! Columbus is such a huge show, I always see trucks from these boards but never seem to meet the owners. I did meet C10addict last year though.

Here's some of the '67 that I have been helping a friend build for his wife. We just finished the air ride to get it to the show. Over the winter it's getting blown apart and rebuilt.

Been peeking at your thread off and on now for awhile. It just has that cool vibe, got the day off work so I sat and read the whole thing. Beginning to end. Really cool man. You have one slammin ride. Hope mine ends up being as fun as yours. :metal:

Thanks guys, I didn't even realize the pics uploaded. When I clicked on "submit reply" it just went into a never-ending loading screen so I shut it off.

Nothing new yet but I'm thinking about some new wheels. Just getting it out and driving it now that the weather here is starting to get nice.

Re: '63 GMC Project
 
Sucks that you couldn't get your motor to work but I think you'll be happy with the Blueprint. I will suggest swapping out the cheap chrome valve covers and oilpan and maybe even the timing cover. Mine started leaking after a couple years. Besides that I'm extremely happy with mine, nice lope to the cam and awesome throttle response.

New valve covers are finally on...don't know why I waited so long. Got my new horn installed also. If I figure out how to post a vid I took a real short crappy one but you can still here the horn pretty good.

Thanks. Now that I know how to post vids I'll get a better one of the horn.

Nice pics, thanks for sharing! Hope you got some good attention with yours. :bowtie:

That last truck playing off the SSR look is pretty neat. I had to Google some pics to make sure that's what I thought it was mimicking. Looks like it has the door handles, wheels, headlights, & grille bar.

Yeah, I thought it was a pretty cool idea seeing as how the SSR was modeled after tthat body style. At first glance I wondered how someone was able to sneak a modern car in untill I realized what it really was.
