inquiring minds want to know.

Just wondering what happened to Brian. He's the guy who moved from CA to Boise and has the chopped AD that at one point had the engine mounted in the cab. Anyone know?

Martinsr. 11/16 appears to be last post. He's on Facebook but I don't happen to remember his last name.

Re: inquiring minds want to know.

he is a pretty gifted bodyman with lots of experience with old iron as well as new car bodywork methods and one who freely gave advice, be it his version or opinion or the most common newer practices used in a bodyshop. I seen a few times where others criticised his viewpoints or opinions which could turn anyone off after a few harsh posts so maybe he just got tired of it and has moved on. maybe he just started doing more than his 15 minutes a day he was doing before he moved and his truck is done and he is driving it. lets hope he is keeping busy and hasn't just left with a bad taste in his mouth. I know he helped a lot of guys on this forum and wrote a few how to articles that savd members a lot of work and heartache.

Re: inquiring minds want to know.

He posts on a custom group on FB every so often.

He is getting some progress done on the truck.

I've got a feeling that I will be going though Boise on a fairly regular basis as my son is the facilities manager of the new True West Beef plant in Jerome Idaho and is buying a place in Wendle this coming week.
