Cal, just want to say thanks not only for the beauty you've created but for the discussion that's been provoked. I learned a lot.

Regards.

Thanks again for the kind words. They stopped having the Friday night show at Cali's. It moved to Dairy Delight in Pinedale.

Re: 58 GMC Project

CAL 58 GMC, just wanted to say thanks for such a terrific write up on your build. That is truly one of the finest trucks I've ever seen and a huge motivator to get my '67 done. The paint is gorgeous. I need to clean the drool off my shirt now. Well worth the 36-page-thread read.

I'm planning on going to the Old Town show. It's at the Elk's Lodge on the 18th. There's a show in Readly that same day. The show in Selma is on the same day as Cam Twisters show on the top of river parks garage and I'm going to that show. By the way, are you ever going to come visit with your Dad?
