Said perfectly. This thread has restarted my build, even cleaned half the garage to get my welder wired in this weekend to start the cab repair. Very nice trucks.

I was trying to sell it. I've had it about a year so that is working pretty quick still.

I was going to sell it to get something newer cause we had a baby coming. Then I decided naa I'll just sink a bunch more money and make it faster and look just like I wanted. Deal with the wife is that now I'm never allowed to sell it. Lol she don't know what she is getting herself into cause now when I want another project....
