Hello everyone. I'm looking for people that live in the Puyallup South hill area. I am just about to start my Frankentruck project and was wondering how many people around me are doing the same thing. I'm about to start hopefully this weekend on ordering parts.

Oak Harbor/Whidbey Island here... but grew up in Orting. The US Navy dropped me off on the island in 1991 and I never left.

PHILLYDEAN... you said you were going to start ordering parts. Trust me on this. Get a hold of Wes at Classic Heartbeat. He is in Olympia... will get you pretty much anything you need. Plus he's local and a damn good cat to deal with.

Does classic heartbeat have a store or is it all online. What do you guys think of Franks in Olympia.

Re: Puyallup, Wa

Yes, Classic Heartbeat does have an actual store. I use both places, but I normally go to Frank's because it's closer to me. Both Wes and Frank are nice guys and extremely knowledgeable. You can't go wrong with either of them.
