Re: My build 63 short fleet
 

Slow right now. After work I had my daughter's softball and my son's little league. Softball is now done as of yesterday so I'll have some more time to work on it.

Re: My build 63 short fleet
 

Finally got the fan I won on ebay . Took forever top get it shipped and the shroud was 4" bigger than it was suppose to be. I cut it down and bent the sides over. I am really pleased with how it turned out.

Re: My build 63 short fleet
 

That trucks coming together GREAT Poorboy. And just think, you almost sold it and would have missed out on all this fun.;)

Re: My build 63 short fleet
 

I need to get this thing done so I can put my new project in the garage. I just scored a Baja Bug to go have some fun with.

Re: My build 63 short fleet
 

Nice...baja's are cool, always wanted to build one.

I have a '56 Oval body I've been trying to sell on CL, however my 7 yr old son wants to build "...one of those cars that you can drive on the sand with"

The thought of cutting up an oval might make some people cringe....at this point IDGAF !!

Anyway, your truck is coming along sweet, looks like it almost ready to fire !!

BTW, I haven't forgot about your tailgate latches !!

Later
