Re: Anyone ever get a little distracted?
School and Army reserve drilling weekends slow my progress. Usually I'll want to do something custom, then I have to remind myself it's just some fad that will wear off and that all the trucks I really like and admire are dropped with mostly stock equipment. After i beat myself up about whatever it is, 4 weeks have gone by and nothing has been accomplished.

Re: Anyone ever get a little distracted?
Distracted is an understatement for sure!! I always buy projects, work on them hard and heavy for a little hit and buy another one. Push the previous to the back. Spend hours on Craigslist finding parts, those parts lead to another project that catches my eye...which is how I got to where I am now. Buying the 68 long bed stepper. I get sidetracked with wanting a new firearm so I go blow 2 grand on a new Daniel defense. That could have been what I need to gather stuff for the '68. Looking for stuff for the 68, I somehow run across an 05-07 super duty front bumper for my 04 that I converted to the 05-07 minus the bumper. Never fails. I blow more money on stuff than could ever be imagined.
I found a Lionel train set I got for my son last week. Stopped at the hobby store to get some track for a large configuration and ended up buying another set with a union pacific locomotive. This last month, over 4 grand on unneeded things!! Hahaha. Its life. Live it. |

I would say I'm nearly back to 100%, maybe 98%, and back at work ..... My place of work is having a 2 week shut-down over the Holidays and I plan on spending some of that time working on my truck. After all I plan to be driving the truck this coming summer so I need to get back at it. This scare rearranged my priorities once again, health and family come 1st, but my truck comes in at a close 2nd.... "LOL" Take care of yourselfs..... "Everyone" Gary
