Yo! Thanks for asking, 87 chevy silverado!
Mostly just 'been drivin' FRANKENTRUCK on the bad weather days. Nearly finished with the bodywork (the bullet hole is now gone,...bummer.),...and still fine tuning engine timing. Hope to install it's aluminum billet oil pan this weekend. I still manage to put off repair of my fuel gauge sender line,...twin 20 gallon tanks makes it easy!
Hope to show-up with a number of regional forum members for the Loveland, CO SummerFest in the Rockies in July to show off FRANKENTRUCK for the first time.
The truck's build resulted in a nice heavy-duty truck. It leaves most others at the light (even when loaded) and is fun to drive because of it's comfort and great iPod stereo. It 4x4s well, and front wheel drive is quite different due to the fact that the truck assumes the feel of a FWD car!
I've been diverting much of my time to other automotive and non-automotive projects lately but I sure appreciate you askin' about the truck,...maybe it'll motivate me to fix that damned fuel gauge line!
Todd.
