heckofa Christmas/Birthday present
My dad has grown rather attached to my truck since i have been deployed, and i feel kinda bad taking it back soon so i just went and bought him his own toy to play with. His birthday is on Christmas.
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/c...ge=2#poststart All my old stuff including my old motor will be going to him for his new baby. Its convinient our trucks are the same years lol.

Re: heckofa Christmas/Birthday present
Do you need adopting? Looks like a great Christmas present.
BTW J/K about adopting you.I doubt I could do as good a job as your Dad.

Re: heckofa Christmas/Birthday present
Hey thanks for all of the compliments guys i appreciate it. The way i see it at the end of the day Family is all you've got, and the only thing that cant be taken away from you is your name. With the economy being **** right now my dad is strugglin and i was in a position to help him out so i did :-).
Plus my parents split up when i was a kid so i havent ever really seend my dad more then once a year, and i always wanted to build a hotrod with him. So i am looking forward to working on our trucks together. To all you dads out their who are building trucks for and with their kids good on yah. Jimmy
