It's good to be back
I last visited the site 04-28-2004!!! My wife and I took over the family business this Summer and it has been crazy busy. The good news is that with the move I have acquired a 40 x 70 heated/ac shop!! I'll post some pics later as I have been prepping the shop.
Haven't don much to the truck over the Summer. I plan to take her to the body shop in January. Just wanted to say hi to all of you and apologize for leaving you all alone with Mudder and Lost Wages!!

Good to hear from you again. I had wondered what ever happened with your project, glad to hear you still have it. I for one, am looking forward to the progress reports and pics of the build.

Yes, I still have the 68 SWB. It has less miles on it than my 01 GMC!! Everything is for sale, but only if you promise not to molest the poor thing. I promised Lost Wages first dibs on it if I ever sold it, but he just bought a new Do#@% so he's broke!!
 I'll post some pics of the shop. Oh, Wages. I will be heading to KC Saturday morning. I was planning on being at the show around 1. Give me a call and bring your 68 you big wuss!

Mudder you were out of the running as soon as you told me you were going to rip the body off and stick it on a 4wd frame!!! LOL
20's and bags means pulling the original motor/trans.....geez this little truck just needs to stay original! If I decide to sell her I guess what happens is the new owners deal, I just feel responsible to keep her original for some reason.
