Just boring body working and rust repair still. Nothing to exciting to post. But I'm putting in work on it every weekend.

My buddies shop is in Castalia. We got all kinda stuff going on over there!

And hell, I'm supposed to be going to Durham this weekend to check out a guys car collection

Post the body work and rust repair, I do that **** for a living never get tired of seeing a old car/truck taking shape. If your ever in the Hillsboro area let me know you can come check out the shop I work in all we do is old cars. What other projects do you guys have going on around there? Sounds like my buddie and me we are always cutting something up and making cool crap. We just started a 67-71 frame for him we are going to make lay frame.
Thanks

I reckond I can break out my phone more often and snap some pics. Ha

Man between me and my homie Nate, we probably got 15 ish more projects in the waiting, lol. He's got his 52 bel air in the shop now and his 51 AD outside.

Are you on the face-space or instagram? Look me up: Randy Griffin and @bro_jackson

I know the feeling of having too many projects, I have well over 10 projects of my own ranging from a 1935 Buick rat rod to a 69 hurst olds. Now I have a 64 c10 reliable again I got my sights on fixing my 56 Mercury and getting that back on the road.

I actually not on any social media right now, Facebook just turns into too much drama and everyone in your business. I been thinking about joining Instagram to follow some of my favorite builders.

Hell I picked up two more projects yesterday, haha...

Yeah don't blame you on the FB. I'm just on it cause of the truck groups I'm in. But Instagram is the way to go. No dumb stuff. Just photos

Fantastic build, your rendering post #96 would make a good poster, look forward to seeing more of this truck. I'm 35-40 mins. from your location & retired, need to come see this & Nates collection.

[58-GMC]

Loving this project! I may be biased towards 58's though.

Great Build!!!!!!!
I have been sitting on 57 chevy Big window truck that was rough. Now I know what I going to do with it. Gone put it on 2dr 1990 S10 Blazer frame. Going to Cut the bed down to fit.
Did you document the placement of the cap mounts?

Hell yeah man! Would love to see more 55-59's on the road around the way...

The only photo I saw in my thread of a cab mount was post number 5. I'll have to dig thru some photos to see if there is anymore

Hey man it was nice meeting you guys Saturday in Raleigh. Here's a pic of my Pontiac I was tell you about.

Maybe I'll see you guys in myrtle beach next week.

[Task Force Era]

Yeah man, good meeting you too.... Pontiac, I like that!!

We'll be at the beaver bar for sure Friday evening. My favorite part of the weekend!

[Ryguy442]

We'll be hitting up riverside cafe one of the nights for supper. They got some killer burgers. Driving anything old down?
