Re: My 72 with 405/25/24's

You know what man, you are the type I'd like to hang around if we lived closer.. obviously you have some serious skills but its also obvious you're very humble about it. Its not about money, ex. Superfly could run with anyone in the business but he's just like one of the crowd. I feel I have known Eric for years and I have never met him. .. . This is about a hobby we all enjoy and I have a lot of respect for people like this. So many people with glowing compliments yet you don't respond with one word about yourself.. just know it doesn't go un-noticed. Mad props to you man.

Thank you chad & everyone for the compliments. I wish I did live closer to some that shared such a strong interest in the 67-72 GM trucks. I can appreciate the story's & history that goes along with a lot of these trucks and people on here. You mentioned Eric, his mom's battle with cancer hits home to me as well as several others who's family members are battling or have lost the battle to cancer. I lost my dad a year ago after a short (about 3 months) fight with lung cancer. He taught me all I know & some I don't. My first truck he bought me was a 69 GMC stepside we wretched on till I got my license. So... These trucks will always hold a special place for me. Love this site and the down to earth people who share it. You guys have a blessed day.

Wade

That is one bad ass truck. I'm in the process of installing Porterbuilt mild dropmember (front & rear) on my 69. Glad you posted those pics of your truck. I've been looking for pics to see how it was going to sit. You have any more?

I love it, easy to take care of and clean. And not quite as expensive as real leather.

I don't really have anymore for now. I put it back in the shop. Still gotta finish the 6.0 install, retire, and 2 piece driveshaft. I'll post some more soon as possible

I just need to stop changing stuff on it. It's a sickness I've developed, I guess.

I appreciate all the nice compliments. Thanks to you all.
