Hey Jason!

I haven't updated since I lost all my pictures. Kinda disheartened a little I guess.

Ill have to ask a mod how to fix this.

Still picking away , I shaved the rad support, moved the battery to the rear,
Mounted the fuel cell , and I'm redoing the flush mount brake booster.

I mounted the rad, and Efan. And have to build a shroud.
After that I can body work abd paint the rad support.

Then finish plumbing the fuel system, and wire it up.

Been busy with accuair installs for other people as well.

So yes I've been squirreling away for Portland 28 days from now, not that I'm counting.....lol

Re: Project: Tall Grass

I'm trying , I'm trying

I need more time!!!!

I work away from home. Week on week off. + I have a super cute 1 year old daughter. + we are building a new house ie bigger garage!!!

And for some insane reason. I became a dealer for Porterbuilt and Accuair.
I've been super busy with other installs.

I have a 68 long box build for a customer that's gonna kick off soon. But I'm trying hard to hear this thing run before I dig into the 68.

It stops, it steers . I need to finish the cooling system, plumb the fuel and powernsteering lines.
Then wiring.,

It's coming S l o w l y . . .

Re: Project: Tall Grass

I haven't touched this thing in months..... Blahhhhhhhh

I didnt love the way the flush mount booster was working out , so I had captian fab send me up a bracket , so ill jam that on soon and call the brakes done.

Then rad hoses, power steering and a bit of wiring....

I've been busy build a truck for another dude. A 68 cst.

And have been sidetracked with my 72.
26,000 original miles, bagged on Coys.....

That's going to be a cool ride. I think we met at Scott's in Penhold once. Darcy D. is a mutual aquaintence. I'd like to see all 3 trucks lined up together some day.
