Re: The unfinished

Seriously.....you started that 10 years ago???? Damn, nothing like taking your time eh?
Looks like it will be very nice when you get done though.
When is the projected finish date?

Nice work so far. Hope it doesn't take another 10 to get it finished...

Re: The unfinished

Thanks for your words!
The finishing date....???Mmhh eh, i think that was 9 and a half year ago!!
Maybe you know the problemsne year you´re out of money when you have money there is no time and when both is there someone drops rocks in your way!(bad excuses,aren´t they)!
The shopowner and friend who used to help me went mad on me and our different opinions killed that relationship.
Now there are tons of parts and knowledge missing and i have to rely on myself and try to make my ideas work.A lot of new things are there now and i definetly want some of them like dakota digital instruments,an aftermarket a/c,a serpentinebelt system from march,17 inch wheels (or larger?)......
Bit by bit i go on and hope that its not to long till it rolls!

Re: The unfinished

Your truck looks very nice.. I know what you are talking about... Every time I thought the truck I have was done... Another thing would need replaced on the drive line till... Well you saw my movie lol.. It started with new leaf springs and ended with a new motor..
If you spend time with your old girl everynight ... It will get done ..
Cant wait to see her on the road...
