Re: new to the forum

Welcome!

You've got some skills and a HELLUVA shop - if all that is yours. Not to mention some tools all of us would love to have.

What's the plan for each? Power train, paint? Wheels? Etc.

Nice job on the truck. Nice work.
I don't think I have ever seen a shop that clean. look like you could perform surgery in there.
The first time I looked at the pictures, all I could say is...... My Eyes, my eyes.
Nice
