Looking good! You are going to be taking that road trip over to help me before you know it.

Hello world.. its been a minute or two since I posted an update. Alot has happened and its been crazy busy. After 30 years in my industry, I decided I had enough of working hard for others, making them millions while I got peanuts. So I decided to open my own trucking company "Semper Fi Drayage Services" its been stressful, lots of sleepless nights, but fruitfull and worth it. Only thing, very little off time.. but soon I will be back on track...
Been pidling on the truck every chance I get, finally worked on the fenders, thanks to my friend Robert, my passenger fender no longer has the spare tire indention. He donated the filler piece from an old fender he had. I cut it up and welded it in place.
Fenders are in place just to sit the bed and figure out how im going to bolt it down. Pulled it out of the garage so it can get some fresh air. It feels good to see it come together...

Good luck on the new business venture. Truck looks great outside. Don’t recall if your on air or springs, but the stance looks awesome!

Looking good! Congratulations on the new venture, I hope it is all you dream of.

Hey Jason.. its on springs... I love the stance as well. My only concern is, now I can barely get a floor jack under it. Once I put the front bumper on, I cant drive it up my ramps...

Thank you Robert, not sure if its all ive dreamt of, but Ive always had passion and dedication for what I do. Ive worked hard and sacrificed so much to build up companies. I figured why not do it for myself?

BTW, nice work on that fender repair!

Hello world.. its been a while.. who am I kidding, its been years since I post. Time has gone by and life has been great. At the same time its been super busy. Come to find out, being self employed is great but you give up family time, personal time and time to work on your projects. Basically I havent touched my truck in over two years. So I made the decision to outsource the remainder to a friend of mine. He finally made time to come pick it up and finish it for me. He will do the wiring, engine and whatever is left to get it running. I hope it doesnt take another two years. Ive asked him to take pics so I can keep you all informed on progress.
Wish me luck...
