Re: "Elwood" the 77_remix
I don't think the sale of Elwood is bad news...we followed and enjoyed the build, we enjoyed the accolades and praise the truck received. Now someone else gets to appreciate it in person, we all just hope they take care of it.
I'm excited to see Jake or another possible project progress.

Re: "Elwood" the 77_remix
The first time I met Ken was at one of the first (might have been the first) shows he took Elwood to attend. Back then it was just the '77. I had a hard time believing he sold it, but if the price was right, then I understand.
Now he has a bit of cash to put into Jake!

Re: "Elwood" the 77_remix
Just saw the new issue of Street Trucks, The American Racing ad is two pages, Elwood looks real good!
Wonder if AR is going to make it as a poster?

Re: "Elwood" the 77_remix
I would have to look it up. I prefer not to offer back space specs due to the variations in pad thickness, etc. I always recommend consulting the company you are buying wheels from instead.

Re: "Elwood" the 77_remix
@N2TRUX, fantastic work done to Elwood! Thanks for letting us read about it, even a year or so later!
I'm just north of you, in old Magnolia. |

Re: "Elwood" the 77_remix
Check out what made an appearance in Cleveland, GA today!
I never thought that I would have the opportunity to see Elwood in person. An absolutely gorgeous truck. Pictures can not capture the true detail that went into this truck.

Funny this came up. I was thinking about this guy the other day and hadn't seen him post in a long time. Where has he been?

Re: "Elwood" the 77_remix
Yeah, 2020 was a horrible year for most. I was following that build, but it just sort of died off. Well, as long as he's well
