I am however surprised you heavy stool is not on casters...

I would probably spend more time in a shop like that, than I would in a house. :metal:

thanx man!! the stool is pretty easy to slide around.. its more for decoration anyway.. ive got a lil roll around stool. i went for a long time without one.. man that was dumb.. haha

sweet garage pics man!! need to get me one of those metal hands that's bad a$$ bro!

thanx man ive got an update you might need to check out. i havent taken a pic yet but i got a different alt bracket that is made for the gilmer belt drive setup. I had the same style alt bracket that you do and it never tracked right. It kept chewing up the belt no matter what i did. The new bracket fixed the problem and the belt tracks great now :metal::metal::metal:

Coulter, I remember your conversation with someone about a show you wanted to attend.
I remember the rules of nothing after 1965. Well I emailed the guy in charge and he said you will get in. His last comment was "Tell them Bubba said it is ok." So looks like your golden for the show brother.

Emails in reverse order:
Tell him to come on and bubba said it was alright.

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet

Cool new pics, & congrats to your brother! Your truck is definitely more unique than a shiny, run-of-the-mill muscle car. :metal:

X2!!!

Diggin' the Shiny new Trim!!! :metal::metal::metal:

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet

Love the truck and wedding duties. Mine will be in a similar market when done as well as funerals (really)

How do you rate the quality of the trim you fitted?

I get the feeling people rate Mar-k as better quality than others.
And my truck will get a full set of new mouldings.

Thanks Ta2Don for the heads up.

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet

Re: intro + 66 black bagged long fleet

Congrats on the TOTM award Coulter!! Well deserved. Can't wait to get my truck road worthy so I can focus on my shop as well. right now its just a painted box with no "me style" in it. Lots of ideas and many more from your shop.. Keep up the badass work brother.. :metal:
