Re: 72 K20 build thread, need good name

i actually went with a new Hydroboost setup from Hydratech. It looks pretty sweet, but it will be a while before I get to installing it.

Re: 72 K20 build thread, need good name

I've been putting it off (for no good reason), but am starting to get the itch really bad. I am very close to painting the cab...all I have to do is final sanding of the primer and then paint away. I need motivation!! Today was perfect wrenching weather here too!

Re: 72 K20 build thread, need good name

same here, all I did was clean out my garage while I paid the roofers a few grand to lay shingles!

I did find my truck buried in the kids bikes, power wheels and basketballs!

Re: 72 K20 build thread, need good name

Well sort of...
I'm moving, which is bad...
But I'm moving to a house with a larger garage and more land, which should help progress. Will post some pics and updates when I get situated in the next month or so.

Good luck with the move. Is it a voluntary or military move?

Re: 72 K20 build thread, need good name

It's a regular move. I'm paying an arm and a leg for a rental close to work. I'm moving 30 minutes farther away, but my mortgage will be less than a third of what I am paying in rent.

Re: 72 K20 build thread, need good name

Actually here it went down, at least for unmarried, by a hundred bucks or so. At least I'm grandfathered and it won't go down for me.

Re: 72 K20 build thread, need good name

No, that's another reason for moving. My girlfriend and I are parting ways, at least for now, and I won't be able to afford staying here. It's too big a house for just one person.

Re: 72 K20 build thread, need good name

sorry to hear that, atleast you have your trucks... how much longer will you stay near DC? You should look into the Active Guard/Reserve system if you want stability in an area. The Air guard has plenty of jobs out there...

Re: 72 K20 build thread, need good name

I was just checking to see how long it would be before someone noticed, so I am glad you care!
Basically here's the deal. I moved in February...bought vs renting at the old place. Now I have more land, lots more privacy, a larger garage, and the freedom to work loud, late and modify the workspace to fit my needs. Since February I have been doing work on the house, complete gut job. I plan to be done with this in the fall so I can start on the truck again. Just need to wire the garage for the welder and compressor and I am back in business. Oh, and I also bought three Dodge Power Wagons, a '56 and two '67s...the next projects!
