Re: off it goes

Thanks for the offers guys, I apprciate it....it will get done, unfortunately not as quick as I would like....I have just been super busy lately and don't seem to be able to get any time. I had it at a buddies shop, but I got frustrated with it sitting there so it is back here in my garage for now. I am waiting on a guy who is going to fab me some in fenders and do the inside of the box for me...he is an amazing fab guy and you have to wait for the best. Aside from job here http://www.12gacustoms.com/ I do alot of work from home as a side line I do graphic design and I sell alot of designs to tattoo shops...so free time is at a minimum.

Re: off it goes

I know what you mean about free time for projects. Mine got stalled back in March when baseball started with my kids. Hope you can get some time on it soon. Very cool truck!

Re: off it goes
