Cool project Shawno. I just got through the whole build. Amazing how much you have improved this truck in such a short period of time. Really cool that you get to drive all the time too.

HotRod C/10 · 03-13-2013, 11:06 PM

I would have to call Shawn a lucky Ba$tard!..................I cant wait to drive my junk.

shawno72 · 03-14-2013, 12:30 AM

Thanks guys. It has been diligence and being in the right place at the right time or the truth be told I have been blessed with good fortune

These trucks are a passion for me and its always fun. Not always easy but always fun
