A good crossthread is better than Loctite any day.

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage

Here are a few pics from last weekend. Got the bed in paint and bolted back on the truck. Was a rough one, especially for Kevin. He worked his tail off to get it done. Got back home with it Sunday night just in time to catch a few hours sleep and back to work on Monday.

You should have seen how nervous I was helping him stab the big block back in it, not to mention towing it to/from the painter's shop!
