Thing I really like about this forum is that I see many other guys who started these trucks as a project, and it has taken them way longer than expected too. Im not the only one.
LOL yeah man they always do, I got scope creep, slow downs, cost overruns, you name it, it's the big ticket items that usually slow me down, like for instance atm I'm saving up for tires and wheels, and I decided not to use the 71 rear axle and instead I'm going to use my 68 rear axle and convert it to 5-lug so I can have more Lip on the rear wheels.
