Re: off it goes

Thanks.... At this point there is nothing I would of done differently, That is the reason for the length time into this build, dont want to say man i wish we had of.....My friend Jason is an unbelievable master of metal and an incredible hot rod builder. When he is working on something he has already figured out the next thing we need to do and how it will affect the next step. It's funny I am not a real patient guy but with building something to this caliber you have to be. It's a long slow process....trust me I have got frustrated with it, taken a break from it and thought about selling it. But once you go back to the shop open the door and see the truck.... All those thoughts disappear.

Thanks man....I appreciate it....I have had some cool cars in my life growing up, but nothing to this level of quality build. It is going to super clean, highly detailed and wicked fast, stay tuned.....I have already had some magazines interested in the build, so I am looking forward to finishing it. I bought this truck from board member Keith (Crawdadfox) and he told me it was the cleanest square he had ever seen and he was kidding....I am just making it cleaner....

Re: off it goes

O we can see your truck! I believe this guy could make a Lamborghini look like a houpty! Just went back to page one and I can not wait to see this thing. I may have to take a trip up to the great white north to get a glimpse of this thing!

Re: off it goes

This is definantly the sickest Square I have ever seen, and I've been all over the country for a number of years. I love the work yall are doing and can't wait to see it finished. Keep it up bud. You definantly have given me more inspiration to make my truck as awesome as possible. I dont have near the talent or tools to do what you have done, but I will rock it till I get it.

Re: off it goes

^^^thanks
Here is a quick pic of the rear window frame we are building for inside the cab to give it a cleaner look with the flush mount glass. Not a fan of the gasket they give you to fill the gap. .....

Re: off it goes

I remember looking at the ebaymotors ad for this truck and thinking god I hope someone gets a hold of it that will really REALLY do it right. I'm glad you ended up with this truck. The original ebaymotors purchaser got a good head start on it, but you're taking it to a whole different level with this build. I'm just amazed whenever I see new pictures of this project! Keep the progress rolling, no matter how slow or fast it goes, just see it through!
