I'd say so, by a factor of 4 or 5! I spent a month north of you in the Utica/Illion area back in 2008. Beautiful country and great folks up there.

Welded up some holes in the rear cross sill that a PO had drilled for the license plate and light. I will be installing a sport bumper. Ordered a Mar-K pine wood set today.

All I did is download this picture. One finisher finished the cab, the other guy's water broke. His wife's anyway. "Phase 3" is just around the corner.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

That's pretty 71CHEVYSHORTBED402!!

I installed this today and I didn't even blow up my truck (though I only driven it a few miles). I am afraid it is going to ice/snow while I am out - stupid weather. Not suppose to be icy/snow in these here parts of Texas!

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

Thanks guys. I usually don't use a cell phone but did today. Went like this, he's ecstatic with the progress & his end nearly done

Painter says "Looks amazing"
"Music to my ears"
"But thinking about going Blue"
"I just threw up in my mouth" (already painted bed)
"Same color as that truck?"
"Yeah, two tone"

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

I made a list of the first 10 things, some easy and some well, lets say challenging for me, to do to my truck when the weather gets warmer and I get the truck out of Winter storage.
