Only 50 more days until I officially stop working for the Air force then Final retirement in Aug. 20yrs, 11 months and 7 days!!!!!!

Yeah my truck was a mess but there is no need to be nervous, metal is quite forgiving. You are doing a massive about of work so I understand, but you can do it buddy. BTW my brother is retired Air Force. Congrats on your retirement, I can't wait until I get there time to really work on cars at that point.

But again we don't use these trucks as farm and off road so I don't think a full inner is absolutely necessary.

You can disagree with me and it won't hurt my feelings you do/have done some very nice fab work so I have no argument in you disagreeing with me at all,,,,As long as you agree that I'm right

I will agree that you are right quite often. Is that good enough.lol
