Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread

Sorry to see this, Shawno. Not 'cause I might have some parts attached to your truck. But because Irene (The Boss) and I kind'a attached to *you* at Rene's.... and after.
Hope that doesn't change. No matter what truck, cage, bike. Or none-of-the- above.

I got the picture on the economics of the deal...Here, speaking from the chair of a guy that has over eighteen large in a truck that's probably worth ten on the market.
Then, being dumb enough to scout out, and leave her with a good painter (paint jail until 9/26...a promise....) that'll finish her off with body and paint
(Palladium Silver Metallic) for another $5,000.... so she can be worth twelve?

Not for sale. Then again, neither was yours a couple of months ago.

http://tinyurl.com/m5bgbjk

Aieeee!......The insanity of it all.
Best to you.
Keep the posts comin'.

I had a feeling you couldn't hold out for long. Once you've got the bug, you can't get rid or it. Good luck with your search.

Well guys I finally made it. I made it into the January issue of Street Trucks magazine. Thanks go to Rene aka C/10 King for having me stand in for his cousin Andy. I'm the third from the left.

Shawno, my Uncle Richard who seated in the pic (Andy's dad) said Andy never looked so good!!!!! Thanks for being a good sport my friend! Shawno, when you get a chance look at our old 2012 C10/Club- "Brothers Trucks" video, (it's still on "you tube") and if you squint while turning your head to the side and stand on one leg you'll see the slight resemblance that you have to the real Andy who standing behind his dad with his brothers.
(Mrs Shawno probably won't know the difference)
