Well on to the next panel.

Thanks guys.

I did not think people would be interested in this stuff because I find it boring and very tedious. Its actually the most important and the most aggravating part of the build.

I find panel alignment is where lots of people just fit the panel the best they can and say forget and move on.lol But it shows and if I did not do it I would be kicking myself.

thats the difference between one build and a great build. and the difference between a few and the majority. and the majority that has become the norm of that's good enough

True. I don't know nothing about a great build, but I'm doing the best I can. Then maybe, just maybe I will be satisfied. Naw that wont happen, but I can dream right?lol

*R.A.D* · 02-01-2011, 06:59 AM

i believe your doing more than just dreamin it.it looks to me like you are doing everything possible to achieve a great build

Kabwe · 02-01-2011, 03:52 PM

Your attention to detail is outstanding. Several of my friends are always giving me a hard time because they say I am taking to long. I don't care because I just want to do it right the first time. Thanks for the inspiration on the build and keep posting pictures even of the boring stuff.

All I can say is thank you very much, it means alot that you guys stop by and think enough of my build to leave comments. The comments and the words of encouragement inspire me to keep on pushing. Brian I took a look at your build and that was a massive job you pulled off. You are fearless my friend.

Mike you are doing all the right things and your mock up of the GM clip looks really good. Good job buddy. Its good that you like the boring stuff because I will be spending a lot time on it now.lol

*R.A.D* · 02-03-2011, 08:32 AM

i don't think boring is the word. i think you mean tedious..

Kabwe · 02-03-2011, 06:23 PM

Well its tedious that's for sure.

jjjmm56 · 02-04-2011, 11:47 AM

The doors are looking great. It's long and tedious work but it all pays off in the end.

*R.A.D* · 02-04-2011, 08:25 PM

no arguement there.

See that's why I love this site, you guys keep me motivated. All the nice comments on the old beast is greatly appreciated.

JJJmm56, your truck is looking great and its nice to know you have not forgotten about those of us who are still in the building stage.

bajabob · 02-04-2011, 09:07 PM

your work makes me think of a guy i work with.... who continually reminds the rest of the crew..... "any job large or small do it right or not at all"... I hate it when he says it cause we all know he is right and it forces us to look at our work and take the time we should to do it right the first time....
