Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

I thought Daddy was car obsessed for making this blog and then I realized that y'all have spent hours reading about the hours he has spent on this truck. I actually like cars and such and I hope to go with him to the show in April. Let's hope he gets it done in time... -Elizabeth (Drew's daughter)

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

He is, so are most of us on here. A good build thread can do a lot of good. It motivates yourself and others. It's about sharing ideas and passion. It's informational and entertainment. We feel like we get to know somebody through their trials and tribulations of a build. We get a glimpse of their personal life and family. We hope that he maintains a balance. Wish him well, these builds are not easy things.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

If I were to hit the lottery I would have an assembly line made for this crew cab. This truck is simply amazing. A dream that has become real. Thanks Drew for allowing us to enjoy it with you.....

Please excuse the hibernation, but my Sportclips franchise is stealing all my truck time.
I have buffed a little more, but not worth a picture cause it basically looks the same. The ghosting scratches that this phase of buffing removes can only be seen in direct sunlight. You can't see the difference with an indoor photograph, and its too cold outside to take a picture!

WE WANT MOAR!!!

TEASE

Remember what happened to Nate when he teased us about his new rims with a similar picture??? His water pump failed...

As long as pictures are soon to follow all will be forgiven

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Oh...and was the sportclips thing a joke about the whole family getting haircuts....or did you actually purchase a franchise? I know being a contractor was your main career (at least what you told us )
