Re: Maggie's Custom
Good news truck looks good!! Bad news is it needs a motor, we drove it about 15 miles. I'm assuming running it with the oil pump shaft was not good! lol Shopping craigs list now for another motor. Still plan on making Pistons and Paint Nov 9th!! Stay tuned!!

Re: Maggie's Custom
Nothing beats a smile like the one on her face man....nicely done !!
Sorry to hear about the engine, I was going to comment on the color coordination on it too as I really like the two color combo with the flat and gloss contrasts in black, it looked super sharp in the photos !! Well chin up there, you will get thru this !!

Re: Maggie's Custom
I bet having the motor go was a bummer so soon after driving it the first time. Looks like you got a good plan to get her going again quickly. Hope all works out for you both!

Re: Maggie's Custom
The truck's looking good Jason
That sucks about the engine, but it looks like you have that handled. As was already said, seeing that big smile on Maggie's face has to be worth it. Just a FYI, incase you didn't know. That pic of the engine in black.....that's a 305 balancer on there.
