[Modges'66]

Hmmm.
I woulda thought that they would look a WHOLE-BUNCH better in the palm of your hand than in the photos!!! LOL!
Get your crap together & post some pics here!

[Gmforce]

Like you say.....You read a lot but don't post much...So I thought I would...Excellence Sir, absolutely wonderful work...I hope I can muster even a small percentage of the patients and attention to detail that you have shown your ride. The results are obvious.. Beautiful truck brother...
Was Murphy right, the girl making you not work on the truck ? LOL. Come on man, get back to work we need to see the paint work all bolted back together....Peace

[flips72]

sorry about the delay,life took over and had to put the truck on hold. i still haven't recieved my order from the truck shop yet so i dont have my deluxe heater controls, i did get the ash tray handle on and yes modge they defintly look much better in the palm of my hand and even better on the truck, cant wait to get the heater controls in , this is for sure going to set the dash off in ole red.thanks again modge

[flips72]

Thanks a bunch, but Murph was not right on this...70+ hour work-weeks tend to make a guy tired!
Not that I am NOT workin on it, I am just workin on several small things at the same time, with nothing really worth posting!...Yet.

You are right, the pics suck...But I know what the pieces really look like!
When you get some good pics on here, then everybody will know.
I hope that it is sometime soon!
Your truck ROCKS BTW!

Thanks Man....Can't believe your peg-leg...What a masterpiece of an idea!
I would be worried about somebody stealing it, and marketing it to make millions...Gotta get a patent!

The problem on my end is time vs. profit!

I constantly watch your build!

[flips72]

finally got my deluxe controls, and got them painted and the knobs installed, hope theses pics dont suck as bad. had to re-spray my dash because of the standard heater plate covers the dash about a 1/6th of a inch and the deluxe comes in from behind so there not installed in the truck yet but hope this will do them justice for now.thanks again modge and sorry it took me so long, just haven't had time to work on it,family and work seems to be absorbing most of my time here lately.

Flip, these pics look awesome!!!
I really wanted for somebody to have a set of these to install on their build that would truthfully give input on their personal opinion of the quality level, & how they functioned on a whole....In addition, I wanted for it to be an owner that wasn't in line to sell their vehicle soon. I am happy to see you enjoying them almost as much as me!

You are very welcome buddy!
I had a little bit of free-time, and was goin stir-crazy, so I whipped those up for you.
Work has been gettin in the way of my free-time, & beer drinkin lately, and I haven't been able to get much done on the truck...But I'm workin on some small items to keep things progressing forward...I will post some pics soon!

[Modges'66]

If you visit my build thread on a normal basis, you may recall that i accidently knocked my radiator assembly off from the mezzanine where it was stored, to the floor, where it busted into a zillion pieces.
I have since decided to purchase a full aluminum radiator with additional cooling capabilities to replace the broken unit...
I had to re-make all of the mounts, but it looks pretty trick!
Here are some before & after pics!
First pic is before, when I thought everything was good to go.
The rest of the pics are after I FIXED everything!!!!!

[CRGRS 66]

very nice

[Jmorales3181]

Just trying to finish up my current focus, then I will be right behind you.
