Re: Finally "Silvers" build thread!! ('78 swb 2wd silverado)
I just got back from vacation too Dennis. I thought I would have missed a lot of progress because I went on a week long unplugged vacation. Remind me to never do that again. It took me all day yesterday to get caught up on all the updates on here. Then to top it off I get spy photos of you pushing a dog stroller

X2 on that!! It's one thing to tell someone you have a dog stroller, you could tell everyone that it was your wife's, but to have photo evidence. Man, that takes guts, Dennis you are the MAN!! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: Finally "Silvers" build thread!! ('78 swb 2wd silverado)
Looks good man! I liked the one you texted me, but all these other ones...wow! Its coming along great! Looks like its about time for a first drive video. Glad I can help everyone harass you a bit too. Only because you are a good sport.
And guys, they really love those dogs. But they are cool little dogs.

Sweet, shoot, my truck doesn't look anywhere as nice as Dennis' truck. I'll just be glad to have it going again.

Re: Finally "Silvers" build thread!! ('78 swb 2wd silverado)
looks good Dennis nearly fell off my bed with my computer on my lap, when I saw the cab on the frame since it looks so good. I can't wait to the ls swap in my truck my but I can't decided if I want to do a total rear end over haul with disc brakes and a new chrome master cylinder and booster first or after
