Check out my progress
 I've been working on this for about 6 or 7 years and am getting close to installing the drive train. I know it looks like "copperhead" but this is a factory GM color. I am kinda proud, it is finally coming together. I am not very good at the computer thing my secretary (wife) is helping. She says she will teach me soon !!!! What do you think? |

Re: Check out my progress
Super Truck. Congratulations on nearing completion. You did a sweet job. It must feel good after 6 or 7 years to see what your truck has transformed into.
Isn't it great to have such a vision and a dream and see it come to reality. Good Luck. Keep the pics comming. |

I have never seen white letter 17" tires before. Is this something new or am I living a sheltered life lately. Looks cool tho
