Re: [Project] Living up to my username

lol, i'm waiting for Gary, the guy with the race cars, to sell one of his race cars to make it available. I've been waiting for quite some time for a decent trailor with a decent price. I'm not letting this one go!

Re: [Project] Living up to my username

im gonna be a while till i start driving this in any daily basis form first there needs to be no salt residue on the roads at all....and preferably 50 degrees or warmer out since i no longer have heat. ill drive it just to play with it once im done, but after a couple times it wont be on the roads during the winter months.

thats good to hear, i didnt paint my truck for that same reason, wanted to wait the longest before it had to see winter time, so i am getting it painted in prob. end of march early april. I plan to have a new fiberglassed box to go with my fiberglass center console, finish painting interior dash pieces, and to have my door panels redone. And of coarse i am getting my 18 inch irocs for 08' show season so i dont have to roll around on 87' iroc wheels!

Re: [Project] Living up to my username

finishing it up, just for it to sit outside til it gets warmer!! i know how that is. i put my control arms on and i drove it once since. that was about 2 months ago. haha.
hell my daily driver can't be driven right now cause of brakes and wheel bearings, so instead of driving the bagged truck, i stole my dads truck so i can get to work.

nah, you didnt miss it. eric hasnt gotten to that that either. guess he has been busy with the holidays just like everyone else, but he needs to get crackin soon! the bed is the absolute last thing that needs to be done though. i can drive the truck and have that all finished without the bed.
