Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
Nice show, thank you for sharing. Boy you already have 1335 miles since the upgrade which seems like just a month ago.. ha ha

Glad to see that you are out enjoying the fruits of your labor.

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build

Ya I remember your deer. At least you are not driving a super rare one of a kind multi million dollar vehicle, take it out for a little drive and smoke a deer.

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
Hey everyone, just thought I should post up that I'm still kicking. Still helping Mark with project for his customers. Been keeping busy and in good health, will be 78 in March. Still have my pickup, still running great and going to shows and cruise nights, weather permitting.

Hope everyone is doing good. I still keep up with builds, just don't do much posting. Hope everyone has a great year ahead...Jim

Glad to hear all is well.

Your truck is an Icon, and glad to hear you are still using it.
