Re: pictures of my project
Looks like a good truck and nice family.. Did the doc say anything about maybe changing your diet to lean foods and some exersize would help your situation.. I have a 4 y/o and he loves helping me with the truck even though he really dosen't do anything.. I enjoy him there with me but he can't be around the bondo dust or welding..

Re: pictures of my project
That's awesome to hear that working on your truck has been therapeutic for you. This may sound strange, but I love the look of your truck exactly as it is.
