Hahhaha, viral. More like an infection!!! It has been gettin a little attention at the 2 shows that it has been to. Last Saturday morning was Coffee and Cars @ Vintage Park and there were over 1000 cars there, it was a MASSIVE show. As you can see I had to park my truck on an endcap.

It really does! I found some pics that were taken on Saturday at the Coffee and Cars that were pretty cool. Have to post a couple of those. The car count was absolutely over 1100 cars, including 3 Mclarens (which are mysitcal creatures) and 3 Lambo Aventador's plus about 30 Ferraris and a ton of Porshes.

Here are some pics I found on the web that some photogs took at the Coffee and Cars show as I was pulling in and then parked. This is a vid of some of the 1100+ cars that were there.

Which brand of bed line did you use on the floor? I have been thinking about doing that just to the floor just it's been hard to find pictures. Was your floor perfect or did it have little dents and what nots.

I just used the Rust-o-leum bedliner (O'Reilly's) only to keep the bed protected from future rust because I am going to put a wood bed kit over top of it. It does have plenty of imperfections and it covered alot of them. I almost used some bondo on the larger dents then I was going to line over top of that.

I just spoke with a guy that took some photos of my truck at the Lone Star Throwdown and he asked if I would be interested in a magazine shoot. Hmmmmm, let me think about it..........HELL YEAH!!!!! Here is the pic he took and the name of his magazine at the bottom right "Texas Street Fame".

BigMike!!!! I tried to track ya down 4 years ago with no luck, in my search I found you had health issues, I hope you are doing good!! Your truck really got my brain workin on this build so Thank You for the inspiration! The color on your truck is what made up my mind on the paint, but I didn't want to do it exactly like yours (outta respect) so I put the ghost blue pearl in it. I know you used the HOK and mine is PPG. BTW those RC bodies you painted are incredible.......thanks for the inspiration, and the compliments!!!!!

Cool....paint, can't wait to see some pics!!!!! I spoke to a couple of Aussie guys at a big show last month and they knew who you were after talking to them for a couple of minutes. One guy said "Jenkins, he races a black Ute." Thought that was funny.......you're famous!

Go to the Home page to 67-72 Message Board look below at (Projects and Builds) then open, and click on the New Thread button, look at the first page of my build thread and that will help you with the first post, then update it as often as possible!!!! One MAJOR RULE on here "If there isn't a picture.....it didn't happen." Take plenty of pictures and space them out about every 1 to 2 posts!!! It keeps peoples attention. Answer every question that comes up and ask lots of questions, you will get answers and opinions! Can't wait to see it started!!!

Thanks man, really happy with the attention it has gotten from just a couple of shows. Can't wait to see what this summer brings!!!

I had to do a couple of things to my truck this past weekend, my waterpump went out with 222 miles on it so I had to get another one, paint it and install it. While I was under the hood I did some cleaning and repainted a couple of little things. Strangest thing happened, I went to Competition Sales (race store) to return a AN fitting for my fuel hose and spent about $300 bucks while I was out! How did that happen?!?!? Anyway, I came home with a new fan shroud, a nifty billet power steering pump cap, an upper radiator flex hose and a few little odds and ends.

Another update from a few weeks ago that I didn't get to post cause I was having my gall bladder removed and recooping from that. I got some Kicker 6.5 inch speakers for my kick panels and painted the speaker grills to match. also got my airride guages more permanently mounted. I accidentally stomped my gas pedal on purpose infront of the house and my carrier bearing didn't like it.......so now I get to fix that too.

[aussie67c10]

hey dave where did you get the kick panels from .i want some for my truck thanks .mark
