Re: Project '86
Hopefully I'll get to see it this weekend. Been driving down there the last 3 weeks since mom passed.
I'll let you know before hand though so you can bring me the other crossmember.

Re: Project '86
This is a great build that I just stumbled on. I love your attention to detail and your mad metal skillz. Just wish I hadn't missed the show and the chance to visit w/other believers. I know that some time has passed but I will say my prayers for Bob's wife and kids.
Keep up the great work on the truck and maybe one I'll get to see it 1st hand at a local event.

Re: Project '86
Made it to the show today. Good turn out. The truck looks awesome, I just can't get over how subtle your mods are. One of the coolest trucks there IMO. Can't wait to see whats next.

Re: Project '86
Well, last weekend wrapped up the show season so time to get ready for next year. Next on my list is to get the motor installed but that won't start until after the holidays.
