WOW....What A Site !!!
Hello all, I stumbled across this very informative site last weekend. I ended up spending almost all day Sunday reading threads. What caught my attention was the amount of threads detailing with pictures the custom work members are performing on their own trucks right at home. Below is a before pic of my project, Once was my daily driver for 8 yrs. then retired to yard truck. The trans. took a dump so I went to my local dealership and looked at new trucks, Way too much $$$ Right now the completely rebuilt and detailed drive-train is awaiting the re-installation of the cab and bed which I'm in the process of media blasting and repairing some minor rust. Hopefully I can GIT-R-Done this summer.
