  1. I'd be happy finding one!! You got two! I want one for the same reason truck dad had and I nearly grew up in it. Nice of your uncle to send them to you. I'm waiting for the build!
  2. I need two front hub caps and can't think of anything any ideas?
  3. im with you on that, hope it never gets used for that purpose but with where my job takes a lot i have it with me
  4. Had to do a mockup just to see it, it's rough but gives me the idea
  5. Most big trucks do have mufflers it's the larger part that on the 359 kit is by the door. Also one of the first things a lot of guys get rid of for 6 or 8" straight stacks ( no muffler)
  6. That really turned out nice, came together great. What do you use for printing decals?
  7. The blue seems to have been popular also and I keep forgetting to tell you guys what it is, so the unveiling, I guess picture didn't turn out great if anybody needs a better one let me know
  8. thanks guys im trying to plug away at it, i think it's coming along pretty good I should have been to this point sooner however as I feel the cab is going to take some time.
  9. Personally I'm glad it shuts off at 20 mph but the phone shouldn't be in your hand in the first place.there was a a gal in Denver not long a go that took out two people because she was taking a selfie at 100+ not even a skid mark, next post she made..a selfie in a gurney saying how luucky SHE was to be Alive!! she just killed 2 people!
  10. That's looking real nice and welcome to the forum
  11. Well I finally have a rolling chassis and starting to get some shiny stuff on and engine mounted hopefully tomorrow I can get going on the cab and tanks again, tanks finally cleaned up. Just as I went to take the pictures the sun went away!! It's been out all day!
  12. X2 ive got a nice rusty whisker covered winch line they can use.
  13. Thanks Dan I am about to start some assembly when I get back home, along with sand a dog hair out on the hood. Work has been busy so I haven't much time for this, but I'm still trying, who knows maybe 10 more will drop out and I'll have a chance!!! lol I wish I had it with me to work on right now this night shift bs is killing me, but my job change is happening shortly which should help.
  14. Well not much new mostly some paint but want my post in for July
  15. Good luck with the change, is it local or long hual, long hual can take some folks a bit of getting used to. Back about 20 years ago when I worked for family we ran flats step deck and vans I always liked flats and steps better, even when you do have rain spitting on you from a rouge storm and pulling the tarps out! Rich
  16. Very, very great I like this a lot! The striping looks great.
  17. Packing up to go home @ 0630 the truck was already saying 86 here
  18. With his belief being against surgery I'm some what surprised he wasn't on a more holistic health pain killer. And no I don't mean the stuff that's legal in Colorado, my wife does the holistic stuff mostly it's vitamins and herbs used in the right combo, she's allergic to most meds that green one included so she has to go that route. Still even now I can't believe prince is gone. The greats seem to be dropping like flies right now, I thought somebody gave the reaper the rest of the year off after Merle Haggard left us??? And now Ali on top of it.
  19. in my opinion that's how it should have been handled.
  20. I agree with Colby. The company had opportunity to inform the customers in advance and should have! As for the out of scale example, if I ordered the car and it showed up the wrong color not only would I not take delivery even with a free set of wheels I also would no longer do business with the place and I am one that when I'm happy I will send people the dealers way, when I'm not I'm one of your worst enemies Rich
  21. I guess a picture would you see what I'm talking about....I gotta start getting some decent sleep
  22. Anybody got any idea what the heck happened here? I didn't bother to decant the paint this time so everything was sprayed from the same can at the same time. The parts one the tree are nice and smooth the tanks are all orange peel everything preped the same. Only difference is the tanks got a green bath to remove the chrome then all was washed and rinsed.
  23. I think that's looking great Dan I'm gonna have to try that chrome powder, for the tanks I like the thought of black I think it would look the best
  24. That's looking nice! I really like your hinges when the door is closed you don't really know they open up
