Got to hang with captainfab
I swung the big, brown kenworth over to captainfabs shop thurday night, and got the grand tour of his shop. First I have to say thanks to John for having me over and for dinner. I highly recommend him for anybody that needs some very nice custom work done in the northern idaho, washington area. He does beautiful work! And I have to rat him out to everyone, he has a huge stash of parts and trucks. (sorry John) He is working on a 63-66 chassis for a feller that is a work of art! next time I am taking a camera, because this thing is just sexy! He also took me for a ride in his big block burban, its going to be a really nice rig after its painted. I am going to spend alot of time up there in the future. I had a great time picking Johns brain and vice versa.
I hope this thread is ok in this part of the board, if not please move it for me Fred. ty

Re: Got to hang with captainfab
Thanks Joe, Your a pretty good dude too, and you can never have to many friends. The captain hooked me up with a power steering conversion kit and the 73 up tie rods to get my burban on the road. He's a good egg

Re: Got to hang with captainfab
You just need to get to work on your burban before UPS drops off your new baby.
