Looking good Mike. The ram horns came out good. If they don't know any better, i don't think they will notice. Congrats on the soon to come promotion. I know the feeling of not wanting to wait to get the paint on.

sourkraut · 09-07-2009, 05:02 PM

Congratulations on the promo! Toby is still waiting for you to drop him a bag of M&M's some day! The exhaust manifolds turned out good!

msgross · 09-07-2009, 08:23 PM

I think i'll use the same paint on my calipers too...

Forgive me father for I have sinned... i'm picking this up tomorrow..

sourkraut · 09-07-2009, 08:36 PM

TRADER! No more Camry? Can I ask, was the rolling pin the deal breaker?
That is a nice truck, though..................it is a Ford.

**Palf70Step** · 09-07-2009, 08:47 PM

Well, at least the PA roads and salt won't destroy a good truck.

Window of opportunity right there.

Congratulations on the new purchase and the promotion.

I'm looking forward to more progress on Money Pit.

msgross · 09-08-2009, 04:44 PM

no promotion yet... just the temp move into a postion that will be coming open for me to interview for... funny how those things work. I should have the best experience in the interviews though

then once/if hired I play the promotion quota game with the state, once someone moves up I get the rank...

dammitmitchell · 09-08-2009, 06:24 PM

dude.. soooo.. when r you going to spend moneies on your project?...
the money pit looks empty....
hmmmmmm

CARZ1968 · 09-10-2009, 08:36 AM

I think that rolling pin in the back seat is to hit yourself in the head when you come to realize you bought a f*&d!

What day are you doing fall carlisle?

msgross · 09-10-2009, 08:54 AM

so did I!

Wife said that it can roll to the body shop when I get promoted, that should be next spring/summer.

Free time is a rare commodity right now. Should be assembled and ready for final body work by spring.
