Thanks guys I really appreciate it. Means a lot getting compliments from other board members that share my sickness.

*highperf4x4* · 01-21-2010, 01:25 PM

Yessir, I'd call it a sickness.

I'd agree....

joe231 · 01-21-2010, 02:43 PM

It is my wellness

JohnC · 01-21-2010, 02:43 PM

Kind of like self help therapy?

joe231 · 01-21-2010, 02:44 PM

yeah, sometimes it drives me batty, but for the most part it helps level out the peaks

0331grunt · 01-21-2010, 03:24 PM

This can really be taken several ways.. As a vet, it is therapy to get away from it all and yet at the same time, be an illness that can't be cured!!

but I love it anyway!!

JohnC · 01-21-2010, 05:13 PM

Yeah you have to look it in a way that is beneficial to you!

*highperf4x4* · 01-21-2010, 06:05 PM

quit trying to sugar coat it...........

**scotts62** · 01-21-2010, 11:52 PM

What about sprinkles?

*highperf4x4* · 01-22-2010, 12:09 AM

whatever makes you feel better when you sleep!

Good to see some progress! Engine looks good in there. What are your other plans for the truck?

Jason

JohnC · 01-22-2010, 11:42 AM

The next step will probably be the interior, or an altitude adjustment. Still trying to make a final decision on the color I want the truck to be. Whether I stay with what color it is, or change it entirely. That will kind of decide what I do with the interior. I plan on using the fatmat stuff, and covering everything in the cab, and then nothing real custom in it.

Driveway Dreams · 01-23-2010, 12:04 AM

John, be different...keep the original colors. I especially like yours for some reason. And maybe do a slight "altitude adjustment". Keep it oh, so clean.

joe231 · 01-23-2010, 12:27 AM

completely

but for some reason John won't listen to me

Driveway Dreams · 01-23-2010, 12:32 AM

You don't even listen to you. What makes you think anyone else will?

joe231 · 01-23-2010, 12:33 AM

dang i can't get any love tonight

Driveway Dreams · 01-23-2010, 12:37 AM

Sorry man. We all have our nights. I got no love this afternoon. Now I am handing it out.

I listen, it just doesn't seem that way.

Yeah it's defintely not a set thing that I would be changing the color scheme. It's just something I toss around from time to time. I really like the little bit different look that Slugish has on his truck. Same colors, just a little different than mine. That and the way my future budget looks I'm sure that it will probably stay the same.

I do have somewhat of a progress statement for today. I ordered some of the FatMat sound deadener stuff. My cousin is redoing some stuff on his Camaro, and he was wanting some. So we just ordered a roll today to see how well it worked, and such.

sweet man
how much is on a roll and how much did it cost? I would like to do the crew before i put down the carpet, but i don't know if I will have the budget to do it.
