Great looking ride, I really like the wheels. Kinda remind me of the old Hot Wheels. I should have gone to Goodguys, went for a ride east of the Mts instead. Maybe next year.

It was a good show. Lots of cool cars and the weather was warm but not super hot like were in now. |

First, sorry for the loss of your Dad, second, you guys did a beautiful job on the truck. Funny how a sentimental attachment will prod you onward.

Nice. Seemed really easy when you post it like this LOL. Great looking truck. You should be proud.

My Dad was 43 when he died from cancer, and I'll be 42 in about a month. About 2 years into this build, my older sister died of cancer at 43 as well. She was about 2 weeks younger than her Dad when she passed. Crazy set of circumstances. She had seen the truck when it was completely torn apart in 2018, but never got to see it finished. You're 100% right on the sentimental attachment comment. It would have been much faster and less expensive to buy a completed truck. I thought it would be cool to post everything at once and I went back through and added the month and year to each post for reference. I thought everyone would appreciate the immediate gratification of seeing it all done at once. I don't have the truck yet, it still needs wipers, headliner, seat belts and some other miscellaneous finishes. I'm supposed to drive it home after the C10s on the Capital in Olympia 8/13. Can't begin to describe the excitement to drive my truck for the first time in 23 years. Last edited by Olin; 07-29-2022 at 02:51 PM. |
