Thanks John! That really means a lot. This board helped me so much through my build. I always hope my build thread helps newer members and even some long time members out in one way or another.
I know for me doing a truck like mine on a VERY tight budget is rewarding. It's awesome that many forum members like it too.

Re: 1969 Short Wide
Good time hanging with a few board members this past weekend. It's always cool to see other guys trucks. How they did different things, different engines, interior etc.

C/10 Club Oklahoma is catching on:

Weather was good, a little cold but not bad. Your Lexus would have fit right with some of off road examples that were there.

It's always cool to gather with other truck/car guys. There was some nice rides out there.

As of right now, I'm not planning on going. I hear it's a great show. I'd like to go but I have a very busy March already. I have a few fishing trips planned. One of these days, I need to get down there.
I had planned on going to LST this year but I had another obligation that came up.

Boooo... It would have been nice to finally meet you. We'd even make room in the C/10 Club Texas section of the show!

Re: 1969 Short Wide
Just curious, have you checked your mileage lately to see where you're at? I've been wondering how it compares with my 6.0. I've been averaging around 16 on most fill ups. How many miles have you put on this ol girl since completion? Looks great as always, Mike.

Thanks Jason. I haven't checked the mileage since 2014 but, I'm assuming it's around the same 18ish. I bet I could easily get in the 20 range on the highway. I will tell you though, I keep my foot in the pedal every time I drive it. It's just too fun to mash on it....
