You gotta see this picture

I bought some floor pans from a guy off craigslist. My brother picked them up for me and this is the pic my brother sent me. The guys been building this truck in his house for 15 years. He also had a crate 427 in his living room.

Re: You gotta see this picture

OK, a little off the subject but, I went to school with a guy and his dad (a doctor of all things) built an AIRPLANE inside his house. They had to remove a wall to get the plane out of the house when it was finished. The story made the local paper and I saw the article. There are some crazy people out there.

I don't think welding would go over to good either in your living room.

Re: You gotta see this picture

As soon as I kicked the old lady out a couple years ago, I moved a motorcycle into the diningroom. Just for the winter. Now ever winter I pull a bike in to rebuild it. I wish I had room for my truck tho!
