if ya do come down....you have to go to Turkey Bay with us to test it out...

l8r, John

that wont be a problem at all , because i wont have to worry about it being able to drive homw , as long as it makes it back on the trailer hah , hopefully by spring break of 2011 i will have the tow pig finished and the trail rig finished

hey Jon , if i were to tow my trail rig down there to your place , think you could make me a custom bumper ? it wouldnt be for a while , hell , i just got the engine back in 2 weeks ago and just ran the wiring harness today , still have to get the trans rebuilt and put the tires and rims on

yes sir i can do it...whats the trail rig?

Looking good!! Sure did miss ya last weekend! We did some flexin on a downhill slope (that you would have loved) and Railman got to do some more body work from an rock outcropping! Come to think of it that was Railman's weekend habit Body work! Side of the cab, side of the bed, both taillight lenses, one tailight bulb and a radiator to boot!!! I'll give him this though, shrugged his shoulders, gave the classic Railman grin and kept right on going! Just need to get him to air down a little so he uses all his tires and quits stopping to run that winch out!!
I still say chop the pass. door different than the driver's and start a new Slo-VO fad!!!

yea i think i am gunna leave it different for now just for the hell of it

im planning on eventually exo'ing the whole thing but it may not happen as quick as id like

That chopped fender looks good!

glad to see her out of the shop, even if it was only for a little bit!

 

[86 slo-vo]

just ready to get the 35's on and get started on the bed, its gunna look goood
