12 days to go...

12 days till my deadline.I have the body of the truck waiting for it to go on.Im waiting on a shim kit for the rear axle so it can go back together.I might make the dead line.It will be close...To bad the motor isnt going in this deadline.For those that are lost....Im trying to get the body on the chassis of my swb 4x4 and get it rolling on some 33's so I can see what my work the past few months show all by my birthday.The original plans were to have it running but that isnt happening unless I was given a motor to put in it that is ready to go
I am taking donations btw

Good luck - I have long since given up on setting deadlines for myself - have such trouble meeting them!

Re: 12 days to go...

Re: 12 days to go...

Plans are a/c(I have the cab for it).Tilt,tach,buddy buckets,a darker blue paint job, a green/white two tone,or hugger orange and white.Im undecided.It has a th350 for it,that was just rebuilt,and a np205 transfer case.It has a 4" lift now and 16x10 Eagle Alloy Aluminum rims(not pictured).It will have 35" BFG Mud terrains on it when its spring time.Motor,a mild 350 or possibly a 383 stroker.

I used to try and set goals to get stuff done. And you know what? I've given up on goals, forever.
