It started out as a VW color "mango green" but we tweaked it a little

Truck was fine but the side moldings got dinged up pretty bad! Mar-K to the rescue with new side moldings! BEST moldings in the business!

It was a sickening feeling stuck in the middle of the interstate with all traffic at a stand still just listening to it POUND!

Why no finish pictures of the interior?

Where is the video of that engine running.

I spent the last 4 hours reading every line in these 55 pages, man do I feel ripped

did this truck ever get finished?

First of all thanks for reading! Yes it did get done with a new and beautiful interior that it should have had the first time. Let me see if i can get some pictures off my phone to download here!

Let me be blunt.

You are not only a fantastic builder but you seem to be able to get very skilled teams together. That is an art form of its own.

How did the powertrain work out? You break any of that Porterbuilt stuff with the mountain of Horsepower you are twisting through it?

VIDEO?

**67cheby** · 11-09-2017, 11:29 AM

Here is the interior pictures, i built the door panels, Dash, Headliner, Seat , Speaker box and kick panels then had a friend cover it all.

**67cheby** · 11-09-2017, 11:43 AM

We used Resto-Mod Air (if you havent checked them out you should), Custom made Dakota Digital VHX guages, Ididit steering column, Budnik steering wheel, Kicker amps and speakers, Painless wiring, Clayton Machine works pedals and aluminum trim, Custom made defrost vents from Trique Mfg

Bomp · 11-09-2017, 05:10 PM

Love to see some videos.
Glad I got to see BB in person and meet everyone.

Yes sir, it was great having everyone over to the shop!

mjh1965 · 11-09-2017, 05:17 PM

It was a great day working on BB that day . I like Bomp enjoyed the day we all worked on the truck and went to your shop mike .

**oldman3** · 01-03-2018, 08:36 PM

Mike, thanks for the link, glad to see you get the ink. Also enjoyed following the build on here...Jim

Bomp · 01-04-2018, 01:23 AM

Great job Mike, Congrats to you and your team.
Glad to have seen BB in the build stage & completed.

Grizz1963 · 01-04-2018, 04:54 AM

Great stuff Mike.

As Bomp said, it was great to have been there during the build stages too, knowing how much work went in and how many times you got kicked in the face/teeth and yet you just came back fighting harder every time.

Also your whole support team and friends and family did immensely well supporting you.
