Nice pic's, will see you the 16th for the cook out. I meet up with Alabama member JQ-72 Sunday to get some parts. He had not heard about it, so told him to check out the post on the board meets page, so may have a few more.

Tim,
With all of those parts in the floor how can you get the kids to sweep the floor. lol

We just went to Cades Cove in July. I used to go as a kid but my wife and kids had never been man it is an awesome view and nice history. We only saw one bear but thats cool.

Thanks for the info on Tim, I havent purchased from him or any vendor yet but its coming just have to many things to do now. It is nice to have vendors available with the reputation that Tim has.

Tim, man what a great looking truck. Being a wood worker all I can say is that you did one heck of a job with that wood in the bed. The wood grain is just perfect looking, with the way it repeats itself is just knock out. And that shop looks great too. Latter, the Cheese.

Chevy truck fan, all you gotta do is hook up with Tim and he will send you enough cool parts to make your garage floor look like that.Or you can pick them up.
