Ever wonder what happens after you complete a build?

You wander over to one of the other forums here and this happens :

I should get an online degree, it would be cheaper in the long run

So that's where you got lost to. You have taken a somewhat nice truck and made a great one out of it there. Well done.

Re: Ever wonder what happens after you complete a build?

Aah yes, I've been down road before...finished my '54, built a street rod and then built a FFR, now I need the space so I will sell it when I get back and go hard on the COE. By the way if you ever want a road rocket build one of these things.

Thanks for posting the link. Now if I sell my 55 d@dge and go get a 65 burb I can blame you.
Truck looks awesome, i think you should get the proverbial " nailed it award" or something. Can't wait to see it with the drop.

Now that would be cool. I only have 1 extra day this year to take before 12/31. Once it resets, I won't be camping at the Portland swap meet in April so I will have 3...hmmmm Hit me up in January and see how far you are by then.

Your welcome meter swinger.
