bobbo · 08-07-2010, 10:56 AM

Come on over!

I'll wash it.

Spray-Bomb · 08-07-2010, 03:44 PM

Hmm, orange inside the tailgate & 3" exhaust.... Sounds familiar

bobbo · 08-07-2010, 09:49 PM

Hey there Matt! Haven't heard from you in awhile.

Don't get into the GD much, too consumed here and Missouri.

How have you been?

72BlckButy · 08-07-2010, 11:43 PM

That belongs to Kyle's dad. Kyle is using it since none of his vehicles are driveable.

It is in excellent condition. Has some rust holes in the bed where sand bags were left forever, other than that the truck is very nice.

bobbo · 08-31-2010, 10:08 PM

Started doing the driver side, going to have it done by Thursday so i can drive it to work to bring home my tools....switching jobs again, but a good move. Tore it all down Sunday and started going back together tonight...Love the pics! Once again a huge Thanks to Kyle for the hands and talent!!!!

bobbo · 08-31-2010, 10:13 PM

More progress...

bobbo · 08-31-2010, 10:20 PM

And plans for color have changed...I was really wanting to do an orange with grey top, but after shining up the original blue, that's where I'm going with the silver or gray roof...really digging these. And our stopping point for the night as well as a motor shot.

**Dieselwrencher** · 08-31-2010, 11:49 PM

Very nice Bobbo! I'm glad to see I'm not the only one going to be working up to the last minute on their project before the Nats.

bobbo · 09-01-2010, 06:54 AM

LOL. I know, nothing like waiting until the last minute. I haven't done anything to it major the past two years so I wanted to get something accomplished.

tcb-1 · 09-01-2010, 08:02 AM

looking good!

72BlckButy · 09-02-2010, 01:38 PM

Nice bobbo!

bobbo · 09-03-2010, 10:14 PM

Little more work last night amongst a really bad storm...Pics of the truck and storm.

**Dieselwrencher** · 09-03-2010, 10:29 PM

Dang! This summer has been full of surprises!

bobbo · 09-03-2010, 10:31 PM

Pea size hail and TONS of rain!

bobbo · 09-03-2010, 10:34 PM

Couple more pics, sorry about the blurry pics, must have been the beer or six...

Some handy work by Kyle!

bobbo · 09-03-2010, 10:35 PM

BTW, the gold Honda is my new ride allowing this work to be done...86 Accord with 102,xxx miles. Very clean, running car!

**Dieselwrencher** · 09-03-2010, 10:42 PM

Nice score on the DD. That pic of Kyle welding with shorts on makes me cringe. I hate welding with shorts or sandals!

VA72C10 · 09-03-2010, 11:18 PM

nice progress

nice man, props to kyle for helping!

sjarrett71 · 09-04-2010, 04:28 PM

Great progress, I am soooo jealous! Mine's next, I'll buy the parts and beer, you bring Kyle and the welder!!! Hey, I see you got your power steering hooked up!

LOL. You've got a deal, with me anyway.

Did the steering shortly after my finger injury and getting the truck back from you.

bobbo · 12-31-2010, 08:49 AM

Soooooooo, the tranny has taken a crap on me, couldn't imagine why. LOL. Been running the same 700r4 trans for 2 1/2 years, it was free and all I have put into it was a filter/gasket kit and fluid. It has taken me to Tennessee, Colorado, Kansas City 3 years, Kirksville, and all over southern Missouri. "Thank you for your great service, transmission, may you rest in peace!" LOL. Now time to start tearing it down since I can't drive it.
