  1. Hoss, you aint gonna believe this, that crazy sum b**** tried to drive up under my truck
  2. I thought about 40 guys and 200 each, but i dont that many people, let alone big truck builders
  3. Thats what i said, even 6500. I think h theyd be better selling individual or groups of 2 to 4 kits. This austion would something for a group of guys to go in on. Not just 1 guy, IMO
  4. This hasnt been "scored" yet. There are some really rare kits here. Theres a challenger mixer in this lot. http://m.ebay.com/itm/131309816099
  5. That goes double for me. Im gettin ready to start a wrecker next.
  6. Casino? Robert Deniro?
  7. Out here in so cal you that look all the time, nice shiny trucks, beat to death bottom dumps. But it would look good with a little weathering too. Either way, both look great.
  8. I was thinkin the same thing tom. My wife was speachless when i said i might need 1 of her makeup sponges.
  9. Tv shows.... I love Dexter and Breaking Bad Say my name... You know it Im in danger.. A man knocks on the door and you that of me?!?!... No.... I am the 1 who knocks... I am the danger!!!
  10. Yes sir. ... Come with me if you want to live
  11. HAHAHA. Is that the same as saying a vienna sausage and a brät are the same
  12. How am i funny. You say im a funny guy, how the F*** am i funny. Am i a f*****n comedian to you, how am i funny since you say im funny. Tell me how im funny
  13. Looks good, i really need to start learnin how to make a body look oxidized. Im gonna be building a movie truck and really want to make it as close as possible
  14. All i have in this world is my balls and my word, and i wont break them for nobody
  15. Great paint job. Nice build
  16. I need try more weathering. Im messin around with the motor. Dusting with red oxide, flat black and puttin some overspray of the cab color. The trans i made it look like it was just rebuilt. This is for a build im doin for a buddy.
  17. Here are a few pics of some small pieces. The exhaust manifold for a NHC cummins, the 5th wheel for freightshaker COE. The manifold i sprayed red oxide, let it dry, then held the can back about 4 feet and let the dust settle on the piece. Then dusted with flat black, flat beige, then dusted again with red oxide. The 5th wheel i sprayed CAT yellow, let it dry. Then sprayed flat black, while it was still wet, i dragged the surface across an old block of wood. That let some dust from the wood get into the grooves.
  18. That sharp eyed member wouldnt be Lucas would it
  19. Cool. Ive got a wrecker or 4 that are gonna need this
  20. You can blame the government for reduction in old iron on the road. From what ive heard, it changes all the time, but by the 1st of the year al 96 and newer trucks must be retrofitted with DPF system or replaced. 95 and older, again from what ive heard, have till the end of next year and must be replaced. All these regulations are due to emissions. The 95 and older trucks are mechanical unless theyve been updated to a newer electronic motor. So the government says that since it wasnt originally electronic, it cant be retroed. Now im all for the better emissions, cleaner burning, but they say its improved fuel efficency. Id really like ask the pencil pusher who wrote these regulations, How is the 2013 Cascadia getting 5.5 mpg, more fuel efficent than the 87 379 getting 8.5 mpg?!?! Now that all the old trucks sooner or later are gonna be off the road and not allowed to work, are gonna get restored by those who can afford it and have the abilities to, and they are only gonna be seen pulling RV trailers and parked at shows/contests, it got dang shame that loud pipes and cool old trucks working are gonna end. There are some cool new trucks, there will be more. The industry needs to adapt, and accept it. The government isnt letting go of this.
  21. I couldnt remember the exact line but it was close.
  22. I couldnt believe it myself. I said to her, you did what?
  23. Were sittin on a machine with 150000 moving parts, built by the lowest bidder, not very comforting I may be quoting the number wrong, feel free to correct.
  24. Why i believe he said he had go pee.... Forest, Forest Gump
