Re: "Oaky" Farm Fresh '73 Short Step

Family first. Life has always been my excuse for not building my truck. So now life has to wait. Lol. Family first and always. You'll be able to do this later on. It'll be a great father and kid project. Congrats by the way.

Re: "Oaky" Farm Fresh '73 Short Step

Still have Oaky and thinking about getting the brakes worked out and doing a few things. Who knows but as of now i still dig the truck and am thinking about making it run and drive better. Should be back with more updates soon.

Re: "Oaky" Farm Fresh '73 Short Step

Glad to hear you're keeping at it! I find the best improvements are those that make the truck reliable and comfortable.

Re: "Oaky" Farm Fresh '73 Short Step

Thanks for checking in. The baby is doing great! She's healthy and growing like a weed. Oaky has moved on to a good home in Northern Alabama. I'm currently truckless but am in the process of bringing another back into the stable. I'll keep you guys posted on that!

thanks for checking in. Means a lot.

Re: "Oaky" Farm Fresh '73 Short Step

So, did you get a chance to install the cam before the sale? Interested in how you liked the selection.

And congrats on the little one!

Ain't that the truth!

Thanks! I've already picked up another truck. One of a different variety but should be slick, though modest. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=701632

Millie was born 2/4/16. I'm going to bring her up your way soon! Can't pass on her meeting a good guy such as yourself.

I did not. Ended up just deciding to move the truck as it sat. And thank you! She's awesome!

Once i make up my mind, I find I'm typically fairly at peace with my decision. Plus, I've already landed another truck, though it's a little newer. I'm pumped about it. Here's the build thread: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=701632
