Hey Joe,

We are practically neighbors. Let me know if you need anything. I am in Oxford. You and your father are doing a real nice job on the truck. I would love to see it in person. I bet you can't wait to drive it and get down to Woodward next year

I actually think I saw your truck the past Saturday morning headed north on M-24. Yeah we are practically neighbors, that would be cool to meet up sometime.

Yes, that was me. I was coming home from work. Do you ever go up to the Culver's on Tuesday's? Let me know, maybe we can meet there sometime.

The wheels look awesome, nice choice!!

Thanks for the compliments everyone!!! And I plan on going to the Culvers on Tuesdays way more often once I get the truck done.

Well done Kid! Well done indeed...You and your Dad will cherish the memories of the resto and enjoy that truck until the end of time...Some day your son will post up his resto pics and the legacy lives on...You did it right! God Bless the American Family!"

Damn, I'm jealous. You'll love driving this thing in the summer. I daily drove my '71 SWB C10 from 15/16 to about 22...then college happened. Lol. The girls -love- them

. Now, that I'm done with school I tinker with it on a regular basis in the summer. Keep up the good work, buddy!

Kindest Regards,

Seth

Sorry it's been awhile. We have just been very busy. We have the truck running and mounted the bed this weekend.

Damn, she's looking sharp. Congrats on the progress.

Personally, I would have kept the c20 frame and lingers, but hey that's just me. All that matters is you are happy

71K20chevy · 11-18-2013, 04:49 PM

Pretty nice build you got going!

I'm 15 and planning a 6.0 swap in mine too.

**steelhorse** · 11-18-2013, 04:57 PM

Sweet. You have gotten more done in two months than I have in two years

ksshane · 11-18-2013, 05:41 PM

Lovin it, and a little jealous...lol

Great job indeed! I was showing off your build to my wife the other night and even though she isn't interested in the least with anything mechanical, she was very impressed with your age and enthusiasm. I have a 12 year old grandson and have always hoped he would eventually become interested in the work I do in my shop. I think if I give it a bit more time, he'll come around, but for now, his favorite tool is a hammer.
Keep up the good work.
