  12. I've found many things inside of cars and trucks.I use to rewire and repair the inside of cars and trucks....in my younger years.I remember on a truck that I was doing alot of wiring and dash work on.I had to take out the bench seat and as my worker and I were removing the seat,we found bags of pills and....other powders....and stuff I did not know what was along with money!!!....lots of 20's.I called the police and they came down and people went to jail.but I've never found parts of people thanks to the good lord.but many other things like some of ya have talked about.when I use to do those repairs,I've been in many junk yards and impound lots and custom shops.you remove most of the interior and dashs...its amazing the stuff you find.Thanks,Chris

  18. I've run my own business for years.I had long hair every couple days shaved.....as a matter of fact never dress up,the most I do is for church and its 501's white button up shirt and tie and of course church shoes.some people treat me like I'm nobody others don't.I've learned in business......you lose if you treat your customer like a bum.I don't judge nobody....I'm not the God on earth.and I don't believe he would either....to me that is a brown noser's that treat people a certain way based on what you THINK they are or have.some of the best people I've ever meet are those not dressed up.but of course I run sound for a living to.Thanks,Chris

  22. hi Chuck, I have a friend that is putting plans and parts together to build one of these trucks.I'm helping my friend Paul T on his project.he has a coule of resin cabs,but I do believe he is looking at building his own cab.we are getting as much info as we can on this project.Paul thinks that the resin cabs are not accurate enouch for him.I see the things he is talking about.we are looking at the frames and deciding weather the C Cab frame is good or weather we need to build a new one.thats about where we are on this project.Thanks,Chris
  23. Me too,I had to retire early cause of health reasons.I keep busy but I miss working!!!! ALOT!! the doctors tell me that I'm lucky to be here,funny thing is I don't feel lucky .....at all.working with my hobbies are fun but there needs to be a balance.I still push working and do it when I can.but it is like sneaking candy,you don't want to get in trouble for it.I understand.Thanks,Chris
  24. You have done a very good job on this kit,I like it.Thanks,Chris
