flamingbig10 · 09-22-2009, 01:28 AM

went to a show Sunday to just look around since I wasn't feeling to good, but when i drove up there wasn't very many vehicles and the host of show talked me into it but I was beat by a brand new Harley Davidson f250 that still had the dealer tags on it

menace121978 · 09-22-2009, 10:34 AM

looking good Aaron!

hey, too bad you didnt have a big sign handy that said BUILT NOT BOUGHT!!

JohnC · 09-22-2009, 11:33 AM

That's good Dennis!

flamingbig10 · 09-22-2009, 12:04 PM

menace121978 · 09-22-2009, 12:12 PM

thats awesome... too bad its not shaped in a bowtie!

a build sheet sign to putup at shows is a good idea. there is a ton of time and money in that thing that alot of people wouldnt understand or know about. especially the 1st pics of how she looked when you bought it.

silvereagle07 · 09-22-2009, 12:13 PM

That's awesome Aaron! It's always good to hear about the old C-10's whooping up on Furds.lol

I'm going to start making a rough draft for my sign and a photo album

The truck really looks good. I like the idea of a build sheet, too. I will have to start keeping up with all that as I work on mine. My boys will learn to appreciate it, too! Keep up the good work!

That's a good idea. I always enjoy looking at the build project pics and information that the owners provide at car/truck shows. Usually when they see me showing interest in there work a conversation starts. I meet so many good people that way.

I also went to a Car show Today it was a top 20 show but there was only 4 that entered so I got a award they were a little afraid of the rain and found out if the wipers are turned on by the switch than they won't turn off by the switch it might be a bad connection or switch and also i need to get a new headlight switch the dimmer for the gauge light only work in one place and it burger bear to find it

I'd like details about that airdam if you don't mind. Was it new from a vendor, or did you pull it off another truck (or car...) in a junkyard?

Thanks!
