Hey, Shawn. Haven't been on much lately. Just got caught up on your build. You have ridden the resto roller coaster, too, I see. Congrats on the new job! I am looking for a new job myself, and will probably end up back in heavy equipment, too. Not always easy, but pays good, lol. Anyway, talk to ya soon, and truck is lookin great, as usual!

Thanks Matt. I have been using the truck daily and she hasn't missed a beat. I'm excited and ready for the 800 mile plus round trip to the L.A. area for the Brothers Show at the end of the month. In the meantime I'm saving for some paint and bodywork.

Red is my vote!!:D

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
 
Red Sleds turn heads! On a side note, your experience has made me put a 700R4 swap at the top of my list!

shawno72 06-13-2013 08:26 PM

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
 
700r4 is the only way to go and yes I am really leaning towards the original red, color code 510 I believe. I would post some pics but my truck hasn't been washed since I started the new job :(
