Getting very close... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

darrellyates · 02-23-2018, 10:32 PM

Well, I've gathered so much information from this site. It is without a doubt the most helpful site on the internet not only for information on these trucks, but the willingness to help another person out with information or other assistance is simple fantastic!! I just want to post a couple more pictures of the truck. I'm getting really, really close here. Doing final reassembly, and should have final pictures within a week. A really big, heartfelt THANK YOU to everybody who has helped me from this site, knowingly or unknowingly!!!

I agree with you totally, there are so many guys on this site that have been through seemingly every problem with our trucks and post up great ways to handle it.

Actually, to tell the truth.... I sort of copied your truck... Just in case you can't tell. I did do a bunch of things things I like... But I liked yours and "sort-of" copied it. You know, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery...

Ah! No worries man.. That's what I like the most about these trucks, just making them what you want it to be. I certainly appreciate the compliments though.

Are you coming to the Coker Tire show April 14? (Chattanooga)

Well, I hadn't planned on it, although that date is open on my calendar. I was planning on my first show in Lebanon TN on the 28th of April. I've still got tons to do. Carpet, install the stereo, one more trip to the tuner (for the LS3), and a bunch of little stuff...

IF I can get it all tied up, I'll try to come down. Have never been to a show in Chattanooga, although it's only a couple of hours from Nashville.

Will look up details and try to attend.

Thanks,

DY
