It was a guy in Carrollton but I can not find his business card. I had heard so bad things about the soda blasting so we had the cab blasted again.
Some people have problems with paint lifting off of a surface that has been soda blasted.

My truck has been put on the back burner until after our relocation is complete. I brought it home from Alan's Saturday. This will also give me a chance to get some things completed. I'm so pleased with all the work Alan has done on the cab. Hopefully we can get started back on it this summer. Here are a few pictures of where it sits now.

Looks perfectly drivable the way it is! You have free cooling, and a cold air intake as well!

greg65 · 01-20-2014, 12:40 PM

Thanks. Stoping might be a problem.

likaroc13 · 01-20-2014, 12:40 PM

We are moving back home to Alabama.

Good luck with the move. We're also looking to relocate back a little closer to our families. Eyeing TN, but not 100% sure where we'll end up. Pretty much depends on job opportunities at this point. Wherever it may be, we plan on making the next stop permanent.

Red65C10 · 01-21-2014, 02:33 PM

Dang Greg, Sorry to hear y'all are moving. "There's no place like home" (click-click) for sure so I know it's a good thing for you and the Family. We'll talk soon.

I agree on the permanent move. Hoping this will be our last move. Check out Huntsville it is growing like crazy. It's not home but it is a lot closer.

The Florence/ Muscle Shoals area. It is in the northwest corner of Alabama. It will be good to get back home.

Thank you Chad. We have been in the Atlanta area for nine years and really want to get back to country life. Good luck with your move and the new job.

Bomp · 01-20-2014, 09:39 PM

Cab is looking sweet. Good luck on your move.

You and all the other guys need to move up here to Oregon so we can hang out and cruize.

Thanks Greg.
I always thought it would be cool to live on the west coast. With all the hunting and fishing to do in Oregon I would never get my son out of the woods. Lol

Jeff La · 01-20-2014, 11:46 PM

Going home, no better place. Congrats

likaroc13 · 05-22-2014, 10:58 AM

Uh, oh...I see the LS bug has bitten you too.

....what happened with the other engine/trans? Good to see you back working on it!

Yeah I guess so.

The 406/700r4 are still hanging around the garage. Not sure what i'm gonna do with them yet.

Woogeroo · 05-22-2014, 03:10 PM

... congrats on getting back into the woods.

It's a lot easier to store when it is kinda put together.

Being back home is a slower pace of life but that fine with me.

Ta2Don · 05-22-2014, 07:52 PM

Progress...

Lookin' Good Brother!!!

After deciding on a location for the accelerator pedal it looks like I have a few more holes to fill on the firewall. I knew I should have let Alan weld those up.

Alan's Classic · 05-24-2014, 10:58 PM

We'll get them next time.
