Anything get done this weekend? I'm chompin' at the bit to rip the body off of my Blazer, but I keep telling myself to wait for cooler weather. Your truck is going to be amazing!

On another note, I see BigArmzz is selling his red truck in the classifieds... That's all you, dude

STOCKISH · 07-18-2010, 12:15 PM

WOOOOOO HOOOOOO! FINALLY!!! The pics arent great but I couldn't care less. I couldn't let Dennis make me look too bad. Had to get something done!

JohnC · 07-18-2010, 12:24 PM

Woo Hoo!!!! Looks awesome man! Take that Dennis, oh wait he put his bed on for his photo op though.

Are you kidding me? I thought I was bad.

STOCKISH · 07-18-2010, 04:03 PM

I will have the bed on permanently hopefully pretty soon. Not going to do it just for the photo op though. Dennis is aparently much more energetic than me.

JohnC · 07-18-2010, 04:13 PM

It's all that Rocky Mountain air he was breathing.

menace121978 · 07-18-2010, 07:13 PM

looking awesome buddy! i'm happy to see you got the cab on there... probably almost as much as you!

yours will be back together before mine buddy

i gotta get some more overtime in before i do too much more

STOCKISH · 07-18-2010, 07:29 PM

Yeah you and me both!

**nlped** · 07-18-2010, 08:15 PM

Looks great man! At least the bed isn't aweful to install. Your mighty close to being done.

Driveway Dreams · 07-18-2010, 10:48 PM

Keep in mind that Dennis had his bed set on, but Josh has doors. Looks good man! Keep at it!

VA72C10 · 07-18-2010, 11:24 PM

Looks good. Keep it up. Bed and front clip go on quick so you're almost there!!!

mcbassin · 07-18-2010, 11:46 PM

very nice progress! Glad to see the cab back at home!

*Stitch* · 07-19-2010, 07:32 AM

That's what i'm talking about. That looks good man

STOCKISH · 07-19-2010, 08:12 AM

Thanks guys! All the nice compliments are what keep us going at times.

menace121978 · 07-19-2010, 08:20 AM

^^^ i feel the same way Josh! truth be told im kinda burnt on it.

Jonboy · 07-19-2010, 09:09 AM

Looks good, Josh. You are almost there!

STOCKISH · 07-19-2010, 03:05 PM

Definately feels good to walk out into the garage and see it looking like a truck again. 7 months and counting since I got to drive it last. I'm getting impatient!

glock35ipsc · 07-19-2010, 03:44 PM

Grab some beer and call a few buddies over. That should have the bed on there in 3 minutes flat.
No bed on frame = no beer.

The offer of more beer should get front clip bolted on fairly quick.

After that, don't offer any more beer. Bad things might start happening, like taking things apart.

Used correctly, beer CAN solve a lot of problems!

Doesn't seem like it has been that long. Time flies when you're having fun!

I may get the bed on tonight if the baseball game I was planning on taking my little man to gets rained out!

JohnC · 07-19-2010, 04:54 PM

Now that you have the cab on the ball will start rolling again. The bed will be the next big thing, then after that you will be on cruise control!

MMMmmmmm... BEER!!!

STOCKISH · 07-19-2010, 09:28 PM

Definately didnt do any rain dances. I would take a night at the ball park
(or a hockey game!) with my wife and son over working on the truck anyday! It's a shame soooo many people feel just the opposite. Trucks come and go, my family will not! Maybe tomorrow!
