Now you need to move everything else in the garage to storage so you have room to work the truck.

That's for sure. Joe's garage is like the local hang out for parts!

Glad to see it's home Joe. Hope to start seeing some progress.

scotts62 · 09-06-2010, 09:17 AM

Heck yeah!!

billysbowties · 09-06-2010, 10:13 AM

Hey Joe, how are things going. Is that your original truck or another one I sure would like to have that bed looks real good from this side. Oh another update, we drove to Springfield and picked up a AB she's a handful, very rough and a lot of biting when she plays hard. She is only 12 weeks old now and if we don't stop this biting she is going to be out of control when she is grown. But back to your truck, that must be a different truck unless you tore it apart again.

Hey Billy

on the pup!
they are a bit rough and tumble, but they take training very well.
It is the same truck, it has just been in pieces for far too long

mcbassin · 09-06-2010, 08:12 PM

That bike is pretty cool. You can get some pretty good money out of those.

bjcaldwe · 09-28-2010, 02:43 PM

Is that the one she was working on when I picked up the rearend?

Looks pretty good.
