Re: Markeb01 Build Thread
Enjoyed his posts, my ride has the front wheels on it that I purchased from him. I’ll be sure to keep them rolling for him. RIP.

Re: Markeb01 Build Thread
This is really sad.
Mark and I used to chat outside of the threads too. I have a pair of original GM spotlights from his truck that he gifted me years ago for my truck. Thank you for your service friend. RIP, I am at a loss for more to say.

Re: Markeb01 Build Thread
Damnit....
i had to just go back through this thread and do my own little tribute to Mark. Unfortunately i never got to meet the man, but from what i see on here, he was a great soul, Served his country proudly, and loved this truck. My heart goes out to his wife, kids and rest of he family. I learned so much from his posts, but i will never forget "Tufting". God Speed my friend. May God Bless this family. |

Re: Markeb01 Build Thread
In tribute to Mark, I think anyone that has received anything from him as a gift or purchase or has used one of his ideas on your own truck should post pictures of the mod or item. I plan on using Mark's backup light setup on my truck in the coming months.
I didn't know Mark really, but he answered my PMs when I had questions and he always had a positive attitude and definitely loved his truck and interacting with people on the board. I also love the pic that was posted with his sidearm...looks like an old pic from the wild west. RIP Mark, I wish more people were like you! |

Re: Markeb01 Build Thread
Damn, this really bums me out. I havent been on the site a lot lately, dealing with medical issues from military service lately myself.
I always felt a kinship with Mark, being a fellow Washingtonian, military guy, and of course C-10 fanatic....I've referenced his thread many, many times for ideas. Truly sad news...Godspeed friend, you will be missed. |

Re: Markeb01 Build Thread
Sorry to hear Mark passed. He was a great forum member, who shared his extensive mechanical knowledge, creativity, and love of trucks. We can see a full life enjoying many different mechanical automotive pursuits. Served his country as others noted. I feel enriched to have known Mark.

Re: Markeb01 Build Thread
I haven't been on the forum since July of 2019 to announce that I had sold my truck to my buddy Steve. This is the first thread I wanted to look up and catch up on, only to hear this sad news. RIP Mark

Re: Markeb01 Build Thread
I too have been off the forum for some time and just turned my attention back to my Chevy. This brought me back to the site and Mark's efforts on his truck brought me back to his build thread to check in on what he has been up to as I always find his work to be inspirational. I am so sad to hear Mark has passed. What a great man! He will be missed.

Re: Markeb01 Build Thread
I bet you.... a small guage positive wire pushed into the sparkplug boot at the distributor for each cylinder to an LED light in the portholes would do the trick.
