What more can one say than a heartfelt Thank You to Bret and Jennifer for ferrying us around to various places like the new house, the car garage with all the treasures. Also meeting Jennifers mum and her dogs ( I love animals so they made my day) she is one very funny lady. Thank you for dinner at the Longhorn as well. My T-Bone and beer were just perfect. I have mentioned it elsewhere, but this trip exceeded my expectations at every place we met people, by 100%

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
I am proud to call them mates as well. And you aren't kidding about the hoots. Can't wait to see Rian's full adventure report as he got a very funny photo of Martin while I was there...

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
Sorry Clem. Didn't see your post. I missed the notification email. Haven't been on the truck forum much as it drives me nuts to read other guys wrenching and my poor baby is surrounded by storage. But soon...

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
Looks greate! Building a house can be both exciting and unnerving. When ours was being built we drove by it a few times a week just to walk around it. I was especially excited for the oversized garage. We were limited to a two-car, but could go 8' deeper. I went over in various stages to measure to ensure I was getting that extra space .

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
Man, your place is nice… I love the rock and brick combo and the arches on the windows is very cool. What a great house, momma has got to be happy. and your shop doesn't suck much either…
Congrats... |

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
Really pleased for you Bret.
This has changed a lot since the last and only time I was there Love the trees, well, I love trees. You must be itching. And the boys even more. You may have to build a secret door between their rooms too........

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
John,
As soon as I get this baby finished. received_1300171986666671 by bjohnson388, on Flickr 20160424_200252 by bjohnson388, on Flickr So I can move all this stuff into it. 20160428_182621 by bjohnson388, on Flickr This is all that is left out at the big garage. 20160501_105129 by bjohnson388, on Flickr And then Jaybird will come home. My goal is the middle of this month. I start vacation this Saturday so I hope to get the inside of the shed done and move all my stuff in. You wanna help me move Jaybird? Still not sure how hard it is going to be to push her up my driveway. Bret

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
Shed looks good! I'm getting ready to tear down my truck again and get another paint job and add the three speed overdrive to it. I have been talking a local guy and he's giving me a good price. Sonnet weekend the tear down begins. Let me know when you need some help on the truck.
