There are tons of Loooonnnnnnnnnggggggggggg term projects on here.You just have to work on them when you can and step away when you're burned out or too busy.You've made better progress than many(me included).At least you're crusing it.

chevy72blu · 11-20-2007, 06:49 PM

Cool idea with getting rid of the bowtie on that 72 grill.... It took me a second to notice it but it gives the truck a really unique look. I may do the same..
