Like I've said before somewhere along the way, I'm a body and frame guy trying to learn as much as I can about paint. I've painted about 20-25 cars which doesn't make me a painter.

Re: Our '66 Short Fleet Build

I'm liking it Joe. That looks good. Putting the attachment points on the other 3 sides would be great.

I was really hoping that Rokcrln was going to make/sell plans for a 63-66 tip-n-flip. I could make one myself, guess I'm just too lazy to do the legwork.

After going back through and looking at some of your semi recent pics, I think I need to break down and build a cab lift and a real dolly(instead of my wooden one). It would ultimately make my life easier.

*sarcasm/* Thanks Joe! As if I didn't have enough other stuff to do! *sarcasm\*

I look forward to seeing you make progress. Keep up the good work!

Re: Our '66 Short Fleet Build

Looking good Joe. Thank you for the great OKC welcome you gave us on Thursday evening. I almost peed my pants.

I've never been to OKC in my life. We pulled into the hotel at about 9pm. I step out of the truck, set my foot on the ground, and the first thing I here is -"Who said you can park that POS there?!?!" Scared the crap out of me. It was Joe. Funny guy.

It was cool meeting you, and thanks again for the welcome. Too bad we didn't get more of a chance to chat. Don't forget to add "Hoser's Girl" to your list too... My lady's also a member. C-ya!
