    Fantastic pics Ken! The engine, frame and cab have really come a long way. Is the spare tire rack for sale?(ha!)

    Good to have you back, the site is pretty dull when one or two of you regulars are away.

    Man Ken that truck looks great. I really wish I had come out there and seen it for myself now. Definately next time you're in we'll go for a cruise through Puryear in it. I really like the color to. Good choice. I finally put my engine in (3 1/2 hours later). These hot rods are a headache and it doesn't really fit right so it's gotta come back out. That red definately looks good in that black frame. I'll email you some pics when I get them. Good to hear you made it home okay.

    Awesome Job, Big Brother!

    It's not fair that mom lets you use the garage, and I get the gravel pit...:(

    Welcome back, Ken! Looks and sounds like time well spent!

    I can't really tell (color blind) what color you're painting it- some kind of dark red? You still have a long way, but what you've done looks fantastic!
    So let's see- Fishing, working on truck, being away from "work" for two weeks?

    lucky dog:cool:


    Fish pictures???

    Zig, that's KC Chief red!

    NOT! That's Cape Maroon with no metallic in it. I'm tickled with the paint. My paint guy found some old chips and mixing info. That's about as close to the original color as you can get.
