Oh man John, you are living the high-life now after bootcamp.

Have you had a chance to go off base yet? I have been to Wichita Falls a few times. I had a buddy who used to live there.

There is a hotrod car show at a Sonic drive in that is fairly close to base. If I remember correctly it is June 9th. 5PM to 9PM maybe?

That's a cool pic John. Truck definately looks like it belongs there.

[oldblue1968chevy]

I thought it was a cool pic with the chickens and all, hopefully my rustoleum job doenst get too much patina lol

I wished I wasnt so far away or Id drive it to TX then to WA with me lol

[Hubscrub]

[oldblue1968chevy]

I wish I could stumble on a super nice cab down here in TX and stumble across someone with a truck and trailer going to TN (have a family friend that will be making trips to TX/TN with a 4 runner that would might pull a trailer) Id like to build a swb SOLID TRUCK with a LS engine one day (just a beater with a ls and no holes in floor)

I'll be happy to drive it when I get back!

Is your truck sittin at a 2"/4" drop? Very nice picture.

[oldblue1968chevy]
