68 swb! Thank you all that offered your help with my pos!

Just a thank you to all the guys out there from oregon that offered to help work on my pos! All the nice things said and even some of the rude things that made me laugh, made me realize that with a little hard work i could have a pretty nice ride! So i have enclosed pics of its maiden voyage yet to another body shop and im gonna keep it! ( well for the time being ) i will keep you all posted and may even try to figure out how to start a build thread... anyways thanks to all the members for saying such nice things and for the kick in the ass!!!!!

Beautiful truck.
I'm glad you are going to finish it.
I know they can be a PITA sometimes,... but it will be worth it in the end.
Especially when you are this close.

I hate been keeping track of your CL ad and noticed it vanished, but I'm glad to see you still have the truck.

Start a build thread and finish that thing!
