Re: My Build Begins!
Body Work Looking Good, That Thing Really Fill's up your Garage. But then again your Garage is not all that Big if i remember Correct. Do u have a expected Completion Date?
I Really Liked your Tahoe, But Think in the end this will more than make up for having to Get Rid of It. How Streetable you think this may end up? Indy Jamboree would make a Nice Show Date................. Can't wait to see it in Person............. Rick

Re: My Build Begins!
huge thanks to big j for posting my pics.
there will for sure be video w/this thing rolls out. i am so excited,it finally looks like a truck in my garage instead of 2 piles of truck! my ultimate goal is the indy jamboree this year. it probably wont be in paint,it may not have a windshield or all the guts in the doors(but it wont have a top,so who needs door glass) BUT,it will be running and throwing mud!!!((damn i hope)) thanks andy
