Re: Project: Shiro
That is hilarious.

I just had life smash me in the face last week, so I totally understand where you're at now. I always wanted you to finish your truck, but now I completely appreciate that these trucks are toys & family supersedes everything else.

Glad you've been able to recouped most of your money so far.

He has had his "Gumby" on Ebay a couple of times for sale. He spent a fortune with Delmo, now wants to sell it.

That's actually another guy who is really cool, he did a bunch of work to that truck after he bought it and it's pretty nice now.

The new guy that has Gumby is a good guy. Talk to him often. He fixed alot of the issues that the truck had.

He actually just sold the truck to a guy in Chicago.

No, I'm going to keep it pretty much factory except for maybe an altitude adjustment.

Re: Project: Shiro
It's been a few weeks but the '65 is gone. It went to Boris up in Ohio (member way2lo2). I have a few parts to get rid of and will be completely out. Not having a truck/project has been an adjustment but the stress relief has been huge and not having that weight on my shoulders helps ease the change. I appreciate everyones support and helpfulness thoughout the few projects I've had, there is a great bunch of great folks on this forum. Good luck with all of your projects, I'll be lurking a bit and maybe I'll be able to return y'alls kindness with an encouraging word one day if any of you hit a rough patch. Later on!

The '65 loaded and headed to the Patina Plantation in Euclid Ohio.

Glad to hear you'll still be hanging around. That lil 68 stepper you had will always be one of my favorites. Thanks for the pics you posted of it in the other thread.

BTW: it's always good to drop ones stress level. Glad to hear you got rid of a lot of yours.
