The last one looks like formerly lolife99 now n2billet's truck. Digging the red/plaid interior, too.

It's all good Chris, I will probably get some billets. Not sure I'll ever have it on air. Not any time soon anyway. I'd like to upgrade the control arms, brakes and sway bars.
It's not lolife99's old truck. Very very nice though.

Thanks. Not sure if anyone keeps track of numbers but 400+ C/10 specific trucks, well that's a lot of trucks.

thanks Boynton. I'm probably not going to make that trip, but I'm going to try. My schedule has been brutal the last few months.

I can attest that's a lot of trucks

In fact it might be a little too many coming from an area with very little fixed up.

It'll also make you consider draining your bank account and/or moving south.

Hey it was good Meeting you Ryan. I wish we could have had more time to visit about your project. Sounds like a plan for you to head south.

Yeah Ryan, that is a squarebody handle. It's a really cool design.

**Dieselwrencher** · 09-23-2016, 09:05 PM

Mike, do you remember who was making/selling them?

tune_1 · 09-24-2016, 05:55 PM

Enjoyed the video and was glad to see the truck driven that distance. You did a great job. Liked the ending at a lake.

Thanks, it was a blast to drive. That little lake is Mountain lake, just north of Ardmore. I went fishing there about 20 years ago. I wanted to see if had changed much.

Had a blast this weekend at my first GoodGuys show in Fort Worth. It was incredible how many cars and trucks they had at this show.
Met a bunch of great people and got to talk trucks.

My wife and I got the thrill of riding in one of those 160 MPH Nascar style cars. That was super fun!
Saturday morning early

Hanging with Tim.

Sunday morning early

Back home safely after 400+ miles

Nascar experience:

That is way cool Mike, glad you had a good time. My wife and I always go to the Goodguys show in Charlotte every year and sometimes the one in Columbus. A lot of nice hot rods to look at

**Dieselwrencher** · 10-03-2016, 06:59 PM

Very nice Mike! It looks great setting in the middle of that track. I'm sure that nascar ride was a blast too!

boynton · 10-03-2016, 09:06 PM
