2dwn4u - the truck is coming along really nice. Stellar body work on it. Definitely subscribed on this one.

That Cobra R in the background in your earlier pictures - are you working on that or your buddy? BF Goodrich's Cobra R has been on my wall since the release of that car.

Re: back on the 1950 after 10 yrs being stopped

Any news on this build? Ran across it while searching for slick sand and noticed how well the doors fit so I wanted to take a closer look. Looks great so far!
