Re: off it goes
The short test drive on IG looked promising. Congrats!

Re: off it goes
Thanks so much...No, from day 1 that’s was one of the things I liked about the truck was the painted bumpers, so chroming them never was in the plans. They are heavily modified so it would of been rough to do, they are narrowed side to side, they are tucked in, both ends were cut off and reworked to fit the body better, they were also smoothed with no bolt heads,

Re: off it goes
Your truck is a work of art. So many details you wouldn’t notice unless you know what you’re looking for or in my case followed along with the build thread haha.

Re: off it goes
It's 2020...we're lucky he chooses to post anything here to be honest. Lots of folks posting to Instagram rather than the forum these days. Instagram is my only "social" media account because so many of the builds I was following here had the photos on Instagram first and eventually they stopped posting here period. Unfortunately for me, I'm taking a break from Instagram so I missed the video too

Re: off it goes
I'm sure you mentioned at some point, but I've forgotten -- Where's the battery hidden?

I assume that the conversion is due to the convenience of FB and IG on your phone as opposed to having to "log on" to the internet... but I for one am an old hold out & going to stay true to the forum! |

I'll admit, IG is wearing on me these days. I can't stand FB & the commonalities are more & more evident every day. I especially dislike the every 4th post advertisements constantly advertising some music/rap video.

Re: off it goes
I don't want to clog up your build thread, but I went through a bunch of it last night.
I have to say it again, That is just impressive craftsmanship! * Did you build the entire bed floor?

Re: off it goes
My condolences on the loss of your sister-in-law. Cancer is a terrible burden on everyone in the family.
Love the emblems on the truck! I hope to see it some day in person...

Re: off it goes
My vote (I know, which counts for very little) is to bring it down to the Sacramento Autorama in early 2021.
