Thanks Lock Doc

Hi Lock Doc It was some years ago I busted my West Cost Junior mirror trying to remove some home made extentions You were kind enough to send me a replacement up to Canada and I 'd like to say thank you very much!! I have had a real slow build but its getting close to finnished. I said back then I would send a pic when i was done. I have done every thing from diff to engine my self, tought my self how to do body work from welding to paint.

Re: Thanks Lock Doc

Leon is a good guy to care abut others as he does. Truck came out looking like a pro job. I haven't seen (or noticed) your name here in a while. I remember you were friends with John Z and I believe it was you who came here to announce his passing. Thanks for letting us know. We would have been left to wonder had it not been for you.

Your truck looks fantastic! You did a good job on it.

Thanks to the other members for the kind words too.

Re: Thanks Lock Doc

Sure gotta respect anyone able to do quality work like that, especially self taught. Truck turned out super nice, you should be proud.

Re: Thanks Lock Doc

I like your thank you to Lock Doc. I haven't posted much and he answered two questions for me.

I am looking for a project like you undertook. I to would like to do a ground up project. Good job and I'm sure it's a good feeling to have it done.
