A good crossthread is better than Loctite any day.

Life is not about what you have, but who you have to share it with.

Re: New Crew Cab Project Truck....

X2 on the pics

oh and btw Taylor, i was just thinking man 5 weeks aint so bad when you conceder problems that may arise like wrong materials, lack of materials, family issues, and here's a good one...making a mistake on what year of dash you have...because i have waited up to 4 months just to get an inner fender primed! patience pays off for me when i have to deal with perfectionist painters and interior guys

Re: New Crew Cab Project Truck....

Patience definitely pays off in the end man, but it sure as hell is hard to deal with it as it's happening.... Just gotta remember that if we rush it, it won't be how we truly want it to be in the end!!!

Re: New Crew Cab Project Truck....

How do you not know which year dash is in your truck? Was it swapped from the original one?

No pics as of yet. There in the other shop still. Were still trying to work the wrinkles out of the material on the rear doors, they just dont fit the same as the front, but it should be an easy fix.

Ya'll need to take your issues elsewhere. I moved all of the posts about your deals to the bad review board. There is no excuse for crapping up threads in the regular forums with this stuff. You either tend to it in private or in the appropriate area. Anything else is considered trolling and against the site rules.
