Re: 68 project

I know. I hang my head in shame. I hated that. Was looking forward to that but not having any way to get there I have to use the wife's truck when she is not working. Would love to get there one night this week will check up with you for sure. I see there are a few other members that are local would be awesome if we could all meet up some time in the future maybe when it warms up.

Yes I am, I need to keep motivated on it. I wish we lived closer where we could hang out and talk trucks

Dang!! I hadn't seen your thread Larry. I'm all caught up now though. It's going to be a beauty. I'm hoping to get my Falcon put back together so I can finally start on Walter.

Sorry to jump in on this. Just heard about a potential get together in the NC thread. Are you referring to the Truck Shop in Concord? That place is about 10 minutes from my house. That would be sweet.

They are 15x12 Weld Draglites, I always loved the look of these trucks with the big meats on the back.

I should be over here Saturday Robert if you want to ride by

Re: 68 project

Nice work! I got caught one time in the rain in my Mustang on ET Streets. It was not a fun experience, especially on 465 in Indy during rush hour.
