Thanks guys, hope everybody had a Merry Christmas and has a Happy New Year! No progress on the 68 yet, will be a couple of weeks before I can get back on it!

The new year is going to be full of new beginnings as I have a baby boy on the way

he is due to be here at the end of June! I am extremely excited!

Thanks guys, definitely will be an exciting 2017 for me! I can't wait for my little garage helper to get here

I wish, but that's not going to happen. My truck fund has just turned into a baby fund instead.

It's going to take me a while to finish this truck now and I'm also going to have to cut the spending on things like getting the frame blasted and powder coated that I wanted to do. I'm just going to clean the frame up myself and paint it now, but I'm good with that. It's all worth it.

I know exactly how that goes Keith. My project also stalled when my little guy was born. Now that he's 3 its time for me to get mine done so we can enjoy it together!

That's basically where I'll be at with mine Brandon. Hopefully I can get it on the road by the time he is 3-4 years old

Congrats on the little man buddy!! He'll have a blast in that truck with you. My babies love riding in the truck. Too bad we've outgrown my gmc. I need to find a burb I think.

Thanks Jason, now I kind of wish I would have built a Blazer instead so that I would have more room

Congrats on the little guy, a lot seems to happen on here when your away for a while.... Enjoy every minute you have with him, they grow up way to fast

71'tahoe · 01-15-2017, 11:38 PM

Great build! Cant wait to see it completed!

hewittca · 01-16-2017, 10:29 AM

Congrats on the little guy on the way! My projects stalled out a little bit when my kids came along because I tried not to take any time away from family just to work on projects. My truck will always be sitting in the garage waiting for me, but my kids won't be young forever. I try to work on stuff for an hour or two after everyone is asleep 2-3 times a week and that satisfies me enough. My kids are 2 and 4 now and they do love playing in the truck and even helping out occasionally, so sometimes I sneak in extra time on the truck if they are interested. It's all worth it in the end though. That's my story, good luck!
