Re: Project '86

Hopefully I'll get to see it this weekend. Been driving down there the last 3 weeks since mom passed.

I'll let you know before hand though so you can bring me the other crossmember.

Re: Project '86

This is a great build that I just stumbled on. I love your attention to detail and your mad metal skillz. Just wish I hadn't missed the show and the chance to visit w/other believers. I know that some time has passed but I will say my prayers for Bob's wife and kids.
Keep up the great work on the truck and maybe one I'll get to see it 1st hand at a local event.

Made it to the show today. Good turn out. The truck looks awesome, I just can't get over how subtle your mods are. One of the coolest trucks there IMO. Can't wait to see whats next.

Thanks for the compliments guys and it was a great show.
