Re: How about some pics of 47-59

G'day Youngrodder,
I must say, for an average guy, you'd have to be very pleased with your exceptional self taught abilities! I'm hoping my truck can finish up half as awesome as yours! Give yourself a big pat on the back. Your truck is fantastic!!! Well done.

Assie54-

Thanks for the kinds words. You build something for yourself and it is pretty cool when other people really like it. I'm still trying to get use to that. I look forward to finish the interior and put A LOT more miles on it next summer..

Old man winter will be here before we know it.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Some of my junk. Have 16 vehicles on the property. Most are solid projects that I will probably never get to. Will hoard them until something better comes along I guess.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Wow, there are some VERY nice rides here... I just finished all 26 pages.

After 4 years since I tore it down, I'm finally getting in high gear on the build. Here's a pic just before I tore it down in '07. It's an LA based truck I pulled back to KY in '92. I bought it for a 286 computer and $150 in '89.
