*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!!!

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!

STOCKISH · 07-20-2010, 03:23 PM

I like shiney! Looks expensive. Someone might want to steal it if I start putting stuff like that on it!

They might think I have alot of money invested in it or something.

silvereagle07 · 07-20-2010, 03:34 PM

Awe come on man! That's just lunch money compared to the rest of truck.

STOCKISH · 07-24-2010, 09:04 AM

No pics but I did finally get the driveshaft cut, balanced, new joints in it and installed. Hoping to get the bed on this weekend so I can start thinking about the exhaust. Hard to think about going out there with a 113 degree heat index.
