Re: DJ JR's Build Thread

Not much but a little progress.

Cade, Josh and I got the winsheild installed. We also mocked up the seat to see how it fit. I think I'm gonna like the seat.

The seat looks good and the color goes well with the paint.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread

The color is a little hard to tell with all the bright sunshine but I'm not complaining about sunshine. I asked Cade if he wanted grey or tan and he chose grey. The seat came from a mid 90's suburban 2nd row. Thanks for pulling it Mrchevy4x4.

Jr. comes up to dad and say's next week I turn 16 and want to get my license. Dad say's you're not gettin your license until you cut that hair cut. Jr. think's about it a minute and say's , but dad Jesus had long hair !! Dad say's yeah and he walked everywhere he went too !! LOL

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread

Welcome to the board Cade! Looks like you got a great start with that truck. Dad sounds like he is going to have fun with it too.

I hope to start my son's truck later this year, he will be 13 in about a week...currently baseball take most of our time.

Keep us posted on your progress.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread

I got a new job and have to go to school for 4 months so progress is slow. I have been gathering parts but I am also working on the drag truck so its tough right this second. Thanks for the offer I will try to think about what we need.

Re: DJ JR's Build Thread

Happy Early Birthday Cade I bought these for you last night. I sold my new amp for my truck and bought these headers cause I thought they were a deal.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...#ht_1939wt_939

This is what I want to buy next.
