Awesome. Ive been following there series for a long time and also Deboss too. Its nice to see Ytube content of actual fabricators working and showing there skills versus the Discovery channel that spends 35 min of an episode building up some gag or stupid reveal, rather than showing the build process.

I totally agree with you on that!! TV is all fabricated drama. I just found Deboss, so far very impressed.

Re: My 52 GMC Build

So last weekend I drove my 1951 MGTD to the Canadian war plane museum about 1.20hr away for a invitation only show. Got to get a picture under the wing of the Lancaster bomber there was some amazing vehicles there. 1958 Apache 1 of 50 in this color. Here are some of the coolest cars there.

Re: My 52 GMC Build

That Lancaster is the bee's knees! Four Rolls Royce Merlins...I would love to hear one make a full power low pass.

And that PBY Catalina is close to my heart, one of 2 planes my granddad flew in during WWII. Other was a PB4Y2 Privateer(B-24 with a single tail for the Navy).

The museum fly's all of the piston driven planes, the Lancaster fly's at least once a week. It has flown over my house several times when it comes to my local airport, sounds amazing. They flew it and the Catalina Saturday but I missed it

It was my dads car, he rebuilt it 26 years ago with my help and drove it often. Now I take care of it.
Cord Pilot is my GF Heather.
