Cover that with a red and white checkered tablecloth, put it in the back of the VW bus, that would be my 5th birthday party. Times were sure simpler back then.

Agree, it looks like a new dash pad. If this is your wife's attempt at hiding a present, she must not have been good at hide & seek as a kid.

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck

Not a big enuff box for a Gregski deluxe dash pad. If thats a Christmas present, it's got to be underwear, and a cape.

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck

and here is Sergeant Slow with our first 0-60 MPH speed report

we are still only running on one electric motor, and only charging our battery to 90%


Fun Fact: We never set out to build a race truck!

Yikes! Had no idea trees are going for that. We've not had an indoor tree for years. Our blue spruce just outside the living room gets decorated. Then of course we have our rebar trees. My wife wanted me to weld up xmas trees, so she got rebar trees! And my Christmas Bowtie goes up every year.
