That color with chrome looks outstanding, well done.

Wow Jurgen, your builds make me smile, love where this is going.

Some really nice detail work, it will pay off when you finish.

Not feeling tops but just wanted to go up and look and my truck. Went upstairs today to fiddle around and do a couple things. Did some finish work to my fabricated air cleaner, got it untaped after sitting for a few weeks. Need to do some touch up sanding to the cab and finish painting. Feels good to just sit at the bench.

Thanks for all the kind words and prayers, really do appreciate my friends here. For those that reached out thru Message, thank you. Been spending time with my wife and family, not spending much time on social media. motivation is low and I get tired easily and a little distracted at this time. I had two doctor appointments so far this week trying to understand what is going wrong. I have a blood sugar monitor on for ten days, if level drops below 70, I have to quickly consume a banana and a little protein to raise the level. Second : I am wearing a live heart monitor for 14 days so they can keep track of me. Friday they are doing a TEE ( scope thru my throat) to view my heart. So far they are telling me I have a bad heart valve (aortic stenosis). Blood flow thru the valve is down to 57%, pressure inside the heart is greater than the outside ( this is problematic). They are trying to speed me thru the system to replace the valve, hopefully thru the groin, if that is not possible, then open heart surgery, hopefully it’s the first choice. Again, thanks guys, it is refreshing to hear from you. And Jeff, thank you, a real friend

Just catching up on your build, man this is ssssoooooo cool, well done.

Wow Pat, that is such a cool build, well done.

Another outstanding build, great topic as well.

Unbelievable craftsmanship

Wow, Brian, this just keeps getting better.

Looking really good

Wow Ron, this is going to be a really cool project, will be watching. Can you share which monster truck kit you are stealing parts from? Really like what you did with the axles, will represent the idea very well.

Well guys, getting old isn’t fun. I have had a couple members message me, so thought I would explain. Last Thursday night I got very sick and was taken to the hospital. I had been having some days not feeling well. Emergency room diagnosis was a stroke but that turned out to be incorrect after a brain scan followed by a ton of other tests. I have a bad heart valve that needs replaced soon. Home now. Doctor appointment today another doctor appointment tomorrow. I will be away for awhile so this can get worked out. Just dropping you guys a message, it will turn out fine.

Wow Scott, sure looks good.

Very cool project

Outstanding build, very pleasing to look at.

Scott, this build is progressing so well, looking good.
