We've had a really good year fishing, caught bass all over the state. Good times. The Camaros on hold until the new shop addition is complete. I have broken ground and bought structural steel for the building, but that's about as far as I've gotten. I'm working a pretty long hour schedule. Which doesn't leave much time for shop....

How's everyone doing? We've had some great weather here the last few days. I don't mind sharing a few pics from last weekend.

Re: 1969 Short Wide

Very nice! When my 40 Ford was still drive able, I used to do the same in parking lots. And 80% of the time some pos car would park inches from it. Some people!

Re: 1969 Short Wide

Good to see you out and enjoying it. Beautiful truck! You have every right to be proud of it. Also a very lucky truck! Too few of these trucks find awesome owners willing to devote the blood, sweat, and dollars, to bring them back.

Been hanging with the local C/10 club here in Oklahoma. Starting to really get some good turn outs at our local Coffee and Cars cruise ins.

Brandon, You will meet a bunch of truck folks when you start driving your truck I'm sure. They are everywhere, just a matter of finding out where they meet up.
We have a bunch of Oklahoma guys, they have all kinds of trucks too. It's cool to hang out and find out about their build or just the history of their trucks.

Re: 1969 Short Wide

Next on the agenda was driving to the southern side of Dallas (C10s In the Park) with some Oklahoma guys.

I had to get my truck ready to go.

Thrashing in the garage till late at night:

Something you won't see often, my truck at the tire shop with someone else touching it with tools:


Travel day:




Show day:




How about some board members and friends:

(68jwalk)

(scoti)

(stp6772)

(N2Trux)


(skunkwrx)


Just a cool OG paint truck :

Re: 1969 Short Wide

Careful hanging out with that crowd, you might end up bagged on billets...

The last one looks like formerly lolife99 now n2billet's truck. Digging the red/plaid interior, too.
