Photobucket has worked great for me for years. They don't reduce the resolution of your pics unless you specify it.

Truck looks great though..

Yeah, that's more like it. Thanks Mike!

I love the way light plays off this paint.

Is that laid all the way out? If not can we get one of those pics.

Thanks
Gary

I have to install a c notch to get the back farther down. The front goes down until the inner fenders hit the tires. Here's the only pics I have handy of the front aired out.

I love those wheels!

Took Tom out for a photo session today.

Spent the afternoon buttoning things down on the chassis. Replaced the e3 display cable and also checked the fuse for the compressor. It was fine, but I thought it might have blown because I've only heard it come on once since we finished up for GOODGUYS. Because the display cable was out of order I didn't cycle the system much because I wanted to be able to drive. Well, all that worry was for not. The compressor didn't come on because there was still 155 psi in the tank.

Very nice sir!!

Thanks everyone!

It's always fun to see something that was just an idea come to reality. I had a bunch of spare parts and decided to get Tom to put them on. Next thing you know, it kinda snowballed. Now I still have a few parts left over that will find a home on another project -

Start on it in Fall sometime most likely. I plan to keep it as a shop truck of sorts, and he won't be anywhere near as nice - just a fun driver.

JWall · 04-08-2013, 01:54 PM

Very Cool!

Dang.. It is like a never ending source of classic trucks in your world.. Looking forward to the shop truck build.

It is an illness, no denying that. I enjoy the build process more than driving the completed truck.

You aren't the only one, I've been dragging my feet because I'm so close to being done that I'm sad and don't want it to end.

That's exactly what it is - postpartum blues.
