Re: nickels and dimes

thanks. im going to get to work on the cab early in the morning. should have it ready for paint in a few weeks.

Re: nickels and dimes

lookin at this your welding will improve greatly with all the practice you are going to get looks like a lot of work to come but what will it mean 2 you when you see it all painted and running? Best put some elastic on your buttons to make up from the swelling of your chest.
