(I've lurked here a few times, this comment reading through your build made me finally sign-up)

Just found this a couple of days ago and it has inspired me and given me some ideas for projects. Awesome job.
A couple of ideas for you. I'm only about halfway through, so these items might have been covered. For the headliner, have you considered trying to mold something out of Kydex? I don't know if you could get a big enough sheet for the headliner, but I think if you used a heat gun you could form it into whaterver you wanted. Probably would have been easier with the cab off, you could turn it upside down to work with it. Second on the brake booster. I saw you had clearance issues with your shift linkage, is there a reason you didn't go with hydroboost?

My favorite truck. Unbelievable craftmanship and creativity.

Sorry I don't get on here often anymore and missed your question, our rental is in the Turks & Caicos Islands and runs about $2500 for the week. - Pretty affordable for a house in the Caribbean directly on the beach. BeachsideBungalow is the name of our house and website, just google it for more info.

djnordeen · 07-17-2018, 08:18 PM

Hello, nicely done. Could you tell me what your wheel base ended up being?
Thanks

drewskiren · 08-18-2018, 08:08 PM

Took my Chevy to the levee today.....

gringoloco · 08-18-2018, 10:00 PM

Levee looks pretty dry...

smbrouss70 · 08-19-2018, 09:42 AM

Were the good ole boys drinking whiskey and rye?

gringoloco · 08-19-2018, 07:00 PM

...and singin’ this’ll be the day that I die?

**rustytruck50** · 08-19-2018, 11:12 PM

Not wanting to be left out, I've witnessed some helter skelter in the summer's swelter lately....jus' sayin'

A night time shot, guess the location-

A view of the 80 acre lake that the barn overlooks.

Love the barn/house, that’s what I’m wanting to do when I finally buy land and how ironic that you build them as well as a crew cab. Figured the thread could use a bump to hopefully get some fresh eyes on your build.

mrchrishill · 03-19-2019, 03:53 PM

We need some more updates on The Barn and the Bride!

korybone · 06-17-2019, 09:56 AM

How many HRPT's have you done with Young Frank? I'd love to see it in person. I'm with a T-Shirt company named Laid-Back and we've done the Tour since 2011 and just got back home from Norwalk the final city on 2019's route. I'll be on the lookout for you and I hope you stop in the next time you see us at an event and introduce yourself.

I just picked up a 01 Yukon XL Denali and I'm planning on using the All Wheel drive system on a 72 Burb. I'll dip my toes into the build post thing that you do so well and use your posting style as a template.

Thanks Drew for the awesome info

Wow what a build! I've been skimming the build! Nice work,Sir!
