Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember

I have decided to call my truck DV8ED. Just because I have changed the details of my build so many times. I started with a running 69 Chevy, then bought a frame and a 68 GMC cab. Both of those reside in the woods now and I have decided to go with my new find... 1967 small window with 60,000 original miles. I now see why the waiting time was 10 weeks. Sheesh you're popular Nate! I should only have about 6 weeks left. Can't wait to get to the shop to pick up my parts and see what the scientists at Porterbuilt are building.

You're going to make the pilgrimage to truck mecca to pick up your parts? That should be very cool, enjoy!

Yes, I drive a truck over the road so it's no problem getting a load going through AZ. I can't wait!

Update: Porterbilt shipped my parts instead of letting me know they were ready for pick up. They didn't charge me shipping and I understand how busy they are. It's no big deal other than missing out on the tour of the shop. Oh, and the parts were shipped to my ex-girlfriends house. It's a GREAT thing we split on good terms! Here's the lesson- be careful what bridges you burn, because one day they may get shipped a few thousand dollars worth of parts.
