I thought Daddy was car obsessed for making this blog and then I realized that y'all have spent hours reading about the hours he has spent on this truck. I actually like cars and such and I hope to go with him to the show in April. Let's hope he gets it done in time... -Elizabeth (Drew's daughter)

He is, so are most of us on here. A good build thread can do a lot of good. It motivates yourself and others. It's about sharing ideas and passion. It's informational and entertainment. We feel like we get to know somebody through their trials and tribulations of a build. We get a glimpse of their personal life and family. We hope that he maintains a balance. Wish him well, these builds are not easy things.

If I were to hit the lottery I would have an assembly line made for this crew cab. This truck is simply amazing. A dream that has become real. Thanks Drew for allowing us to enjoy it with you.....

JWall · 01-09-2012, 09:47 AM

Looks awesome... I always enjoy the updates on this truck.

Gokart Mozart · 01-09-2012, 12:30 PM

Are you getting antsy to finish it now that you're getting close?

7dee2 · 01-09-2012, 12:59 PM

Sweeeet! It's gonna be stunning Drew! Excellent work.

**Dieselwrencher** · 01-09-2012, 04:05 PM

1970ChevyC-10 · 01-12-2012, 07:52 PM

This is probably the coolest build i have ever seen. I read all 108 pages and i come back and look everyday for updates, reading this build makes me want to get my truck done. But i cant wait to see this thing done and sir, you do some damn good work!

I hope.

Please excuse the hibernation, but my Sportclips franchise is stealing all my truck time.
I have buffed a little more, but not worth a picture cause it basically looks the same. The ghosting scratches that this phase of buffing removes can only be seen in direct sunlight. You can't see the difference with an indoor photograph, and its too cold outside to take a picture!

noonzor · 01-13-2012, 01:07 PM

i think we can all agree that this has been and continues to be an excellent and inspirational build for us all. drew it took some major commitment and some giant brass balls to even attempt a build as indepth as this. i tip every hat in my house to you sir, thanks for sharing it with us! i think i speak for us all when i say... WE WANT MOAR!!!

Tease...

But I love it!

VA72C10 · 01-14-2012, 11:17 PM

TEASE

Remember what happened to Nate when he teased us about his new rims with a similar picture??? His water pump failed...

As long as pictures are soon to follow all will be forgiven

VA72C10 · 01-14-2012, 11:18 PM

Oh...and was the sportclips thing a joke about the whole family getting haircuts....or did you actually purchase a franchise? I know being a contractor was your main career (at least what you told us

)

Yes I do own a Sportclips now. My main job is a contractor though.

drewskiren · 01-15-2012, 01:55 AM

OK, OK, here you go.

I had to make a few trim pieces myself which took a little while.

classicchev · 01-15-2012, 01:56 AM

Thats a few bags you got there!!!! And I thought I had a lot of trim..

Cant wait full a full side shot of it outside.
