Was not feeling well today so I stayed home from our local mall show. Later in the day I made some skaggs for the surfboard. They came out pretty good! Now I just need to make a rack in the bed to mount it.

I was bummed! I had the truck all ready to go if I felt better. No dice... Sorry I missed you! You need to come to the blue ribbon rally Saturday April the 29th. That will be a good show!:metal:

I'm just kidding. I didn't make it either. By the time I was done with kid activities I would've got there just as it was ending. Can't make it to blue ribbon. Wife informed me because that is prom weekend and since my oldest son is going I'd better not make any plans.

While out on business this week I picked up the below grille for my 68 GMC project. A good friend on Facebook had it and was willing to let it go. Actually I should now say 68 Chevy. I have always liked the 67/68 Chevy front ends. Still have to collect a lot more parts for that project. However I can't wait to get started!

Maybe I need to make a trip over there so you can tell me the long story and give me some vinyl wrap pointers.

Nice board and advertising. Have you decided what you were planning on putting on the new panels in the bed? I can't remember if you were going to do some sort of spray in bed liner, or some type of wood concoction.

Wood might be cool with the surfing thing you have going on.

Right now I'm going to use the Rustoleum bed liner to seal everything top to bottom. I would really like to do something in wood, but I want to finish the interior first before I do something like that.

I'm sure we can find you another board and go West Texas sand surfing! It's the in sport!!

Yeah I really would like to do some exotic wood in the bed if that is the route I go. I have a good friend who builds custom cabinets. I have been talking with him about milling me some boards. When I get to it that will be fun!

I sent in my pics and basic info a couple of months ago when I had first finished it on a whim (in the readers ride section they have instructions and an email address), but had no idea until a friend posted it on Facebook today. Hard to get the mail out of the box when you are jumping up and down!!!

Yes you should send yours in. It is easy, check out the small print at the end of the readers rides. It tells you everything you need to submit and even an email address where to send everything. DO IT!
