Re: Red Baron

Its been very slow as of late. I am doing a lot of the work myself(good friends with painter). He is waiting on me to get the motor pulled so he can hit cab and firewall all at same time. The holidays and busy at work has slowed me down. Hope to get motor and trans pulled soon and then its all his.

Re: Red Baron

Well guys it has been very slow over the last 8 or 9 months. My wife was in a car accident last February and we have been in and out of rehab at Shepherd Center in Atlanta. I am finally getting to the point where I can help more on truck. Below are some pics of the latest progress from this week.
