Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Just realized how long it's been since getting to my truck and this thread...
Truck time has been at a serious standstill due to numerous reasons… Rian and Martin showed up on the 15th as planned, a quick visit, but worthwhile nonetheless… after a visit to the studio… I was able to introduce our visitors to Catfish and Hushpuppies… IMG_5701 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_5696 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_5698 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_5695 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_5693 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr Friday morning we met up with Vince aka RealVC at the tattoo studio… L to R Martin, Vince, Rian and yours truly… IMG_5672 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr Martin contemplating a piercing... IMG_5675 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr Rian posing with the Big Boy… IMG_5676 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr Friday evening we left just before dark on our trek to Clem's get-together… Pics to follow in another update...

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Clem's Get-together was an amazing experience this year… Not only did I get to attend, I was able to drive up Friday evening with Rian and Martin, meet up with Clem, Chad, Bomp & McMurphy around the fire pit, as well as two of Clem's truck gurus... That was followed by breakfast and a cool junkyard run… then it was on to the Garage and Get-together…
Here's Fritz enjoying the sun IMG_5942 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr His progeny Gus… IMG_5943 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr Onto the event… Pulling in I parked the '72 next to the Tuba Truck's mascot… IMG_5944 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_5946 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_5948 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_5949 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr This is Clint aka "Arkyhauler's" brother's '66 IMG_5950 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr Kieth's sweet GMC with the '72 beater and Martin & Rian"s Chevy in the background IMG_5951 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr Pictures do NOT do justice to the Tilly build… IMG_5952 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr Another Tuba Trucks creation in the works… IMG_5954 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_5956 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_5957 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr Another Tuba Truck that will be for sale in the future… Diggin' the BBW and the stance… IMG_5960 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr This SWEET '63 belong's to Clem's good friend Cotton, and the bed is off the hook!!!

IMG_6105 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_6126 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr Start making plans now, the next get-together in the 3rd Saturday in October every year! In my book, this is a must do on the bucket list of any gearhead!

I'll talk you through it all the way, even pirate talk if needed. Arrrgh, I kept mine for the longest time but it ended up taking that last lonely trip to the scrap yard.
