Sorry about the divorce.
Glad you got to keep your ride. I've been there also. These trucks helped me keep my sanity.
Looking forward to more pics!

You know how to get in touch if needed. I'm just around the corner......

OARNGESI · 04-07-2009, 05:30 AM

sorry about the divorce\
really looking forward to the new pics

isdeleon · 04-07-2009, 08:03 AM

you have a nice project going, and we know you won't dissappoint your fans... hope it all goes well from here and we can see progress again

*Retro68* · 04-07-2009, 01:47 PM

Congratulations on your divorce. This is a happy time when people figure out things are not going as planned and you both can move forward to a better place. So much better than keeping each other unhappy. Go ahead and get on with the build and I would guess that lifes corner has turned your way. Hot trucks attract hot chicks. Hint Hint!!

Frizzle Fry · 04-09-2009, 12:41 AM

I went through the same thing in 07, 08, and still going (one divorce)... I kept my projects too. Congrats on your freedom

Now is the time to pour yourself into a project like this. Just look when I started my Tahoe - 2007 (the 61 was in lock down).

Looking forward to seeing more!

Great project! You have a gift my friend, an imagination is a terrible thing to waste. Thanks for the awesome thread.

au03z71 · 04-20-2009, 02:56 PM

Any progress pics yet?

SCOTI · 04-20-2009, 05:15 PM

We got together on Friday to move n2billet & his 'significant other' Roger into their new storage/shop building. FilmGuy showed me some pics from his cell phone of a dressed engine compartment. I'll see if I can't get him to post them up.

Film Guy · 04-22-2009, 11:29 PM

Ok here is what I'm Looking at.

c10hunting · 04-23-2009, 09:02 AM

Nice

111stony · 04-23-2009, 09:04 AM

X2 !

SCOTI · 04-23-2009, 09:38 AM

FG.... Get some better shots of the work done in the bed. These guys will love it!

djw32 · 04-23-2009, 12:32 PM

I thought the bed was stock?

This truck looks great!

Thanks for the update.

Mini-tubbed & raised bed floor (wood).

OARNGESI · 04-23-2009, 07:46 PM

That truck looks great

Film Guy · 04-23-2009, 09:30 PM

Ok, these pics are not good. But I will post them any way. The floor had to be raised to make room for the frame notch. Once the floor was raised, the body line inside the bed went away. I had the guys at the shop recreate the body line. Then the tubs were welded up. They welded two together to accommodate the big rear wheels. Then they fabed the rear panel. The hole is a mount for the fuel filler. When the tail gate is up, the filler disappears. There are some mods done inside the wheel well area of the bed side but I don't have any pics yet.

c10hunting · 04-23-2009, 09:33 PM

That is super cool and very tastefully done. I love that so much more than having a big hump in the bed.

texanidiot25 · 04-23-2009, 09:34 PM

Very cool!

What is the hole for in the floor?

smbrouss70 · 04-23-2009, 09:36 PM

That Looks Great! That is exactly what I have envisioned for my bed, hopefully mine will turn out almost as nice.

boonedogs72 · 04-23-2009, 09:36 PM

looks bad ass are those forgelines if so what size?

c10hunting · 04-23-2009, 09:43 PM

Got any pics of that 572 in it's home?

Painter D · 04-23-2009, 09:45 PM

Woo hoo, finally some pics. Looks great.

Hey SCOTI, if you read this you should introduce me to this guy. We could all be truck buddies.

Film Guy · 04-23-2009, 09:56 PM

Wheels are Forgelines. 20X12.5 in the rear.
