So I am sorry for what I said that caused havoc. I would never try to rub anything in your guys face it's just not my style.

We all know your a great person. I have personally read where you've extended a offer to help guys out with a paint jobs and I'm sure there is countless other times you've helped people out we never read about here on the forum. Your builds kept me coming back to the forum when I first signed up and as time went on I've got to know and meet a lot of members that share the same passions for these trucks. I would say your definitely a ambassador for these trucks and you've probably have unknowingly sold more products for 67-72 Chevy trucks than you even can imagine just because of the high quality builds you put out. I'm sorry about you mother and wish the best for you and your family. Keep on trucking.

I have no idea where this is coming from or why. I think I was the only one that suggested selling it. I didn't take anything the wrong way, except it seemed like your mind was set before asking the question.

Im anxious to see the new interior. After seeing your truck at sema, I thought the interior looked amazing. I cant imagine it looking any better but im sure you will make it happen. Truck is so sweet!

Hi Eric.
Very sorry to hear about your mom.Stay strong.Positivity helps alot.I went through this with my mom 10 yrs ago.

And i say good for you,if someone offered 150k for your truck.Just shows how good you are at,what you do.Not many people can turn our trucks into something like that.Kudos to you sir.

As far as selling it,do what your heart tells you to do.You'll know what the right desicion is.

Thanks for a peek and now an idea on the color. Kinda hard to tell cause of the lighting but I'm picturing a dark saddle color. It ought to look awesome. Keep us posted...

superflysteiny 03-31-2014 06:15 PM

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 
It's really the same color as wiskey. Not as dark as saddle

Ol Blue K20 03-31-2014 06:23 PM

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
 
That ought to look nice...
