Probably a combo of the angle of his driveway and the way the fenders are on those trucks. That is my guess lol.

TimE · 11-15-2010, 05:21 PM

Diggin' the wheels Joe!!

joe231 · 11-15-2010, 06:36 PM

Scott,
Let me know when you are going back to the paint place.

Thanks Tim!

I was so excited about the wheels that I took that pic right after I lowered it off the jack so the front hadn't settled back down.
If the weather clears up I'll get some better pics with a real camera

Until then, here is one to hold you all over

Looks good. maybe you can go out of town and they will conspire to scuff and shoot it. There's always hope!

mcbassin · 12-11-2010, 09:36 AM

nice transformation! That's a pretty cool idea....go out of town...bam tinted windows. I like.

joe231 · 12-11-2010, 10:27 AM

Thanks Jon!
And

That's a good ideal

Just FYI, I started some sanding to get her ready for some primer

Need to help Scott get caught up with his stuff then we will start the body work.

Thanks Mike!
It was super cool to come back to.
And Scott went above and beyond once again!!

Driveway Dreams · 12-12-2010, 01:03 AM

Joe, have you got a color picked out? I have not been on in a while and may have missed it but thought I'd ask.

racedaddy · 01-16-2011, 11:19 PM

sweet truck, if you get tired of it send it my way

joe231 · 01-16-2011, 11:35 PM

Thanks racedaddy!

Some days I think I need to sell it and get a 4x4 crew, other days I think I need to keep it and get a 4x4 crew cab

Posted via Mobile Device

STOCKISH · 01-17-2011, 10:15 AM

Or keep it and convert to 4x4 crew! It'll only take a weekends worth of work!

mcbassin · 01-17-2011, 10:47 AM

Oh, I thought there was an update....what's up Joe? Stalled for the winter? Working on the wifey's project yet?

JohnC · 01-18-2011, 05:55 PM

I vote to keep it, and get another one for the 4x4! You know the oldest boy is going to be driving before long.

good point John!

RandyP · 01-20-2011, 09:34 AM

Well Joe, if the weather is the same as it is here this morning, it is one of the 4 (roughly?) days that I know you really really really wish you had a 4x4.

We got about 1/2" of ice with about 3" of snow on top of it. Is just fine driving on unless the road has been "cleared". If it has been cleared, it's a solid ice wash board,

JohnC · 01-20-2011, 01:21 PM

It didn't get as bad down here as it did up there Randy. Still kind of slick, but I didn't have any issues getting to work.
