The radiator looks great. You're enthusiasm and excitement is coming through loud and clear. Ain't it fun!!!

 

[Tripper]

I was really wondering if I would ever get this thing installed but that day has finally come. Got it square, level & the support brackets installed. I feel like a $MILLION$! I am SO glad that's done!!!

As the sweat was drippin' off me in buckets while I was finishin' this up... I was questioning my sanity!!!

It won't kill ya....it'll only make you stronger. It's coming out nice!

 

[Tripper]

While cleaning up the garage I found my fisheye lens that had been missing since I moved 3 years ago. Here's a shot of the interior B4 I weld in the rest of the flooring tomorrow. I'll take pictures & post when I'm done with that!

Ordered these kool knobs & bezels from So-Cal for my PU. Since I'm running a cheapie steering column I thought I'd go with this push button horn switch on the dash!

Ok... I sold my house... moved to another city & had to stash the Chevelle at a friends so I could drag the PU to my garage to finish up B4 Lone Star Roundup & it was no picnic but the dirty deed is done... finally. Wiring is next... more fotoz shortly!

 

[earthman]

So it's going to be ready for the roundup? Excellent

 

[bob w]

All those fine parts and pieces are coming together to make one cool truck. Good luck on your finish date.

 

[Tripper]

Yep... like last year... it'z the big push with 6 weeks to go. I'm headed to one of my storage units to roundup some missing parts like the headlights etc. I'm fired up & can see the lite at the end of that ratty tunnel. Also, gonna use the orig seats from my Nova & will make Mexican blanket seat covers. Glad I decided to hang on to them now! Fotoz shortly! And of course... don't forget the awesome cow skull air cleaners & cow skull shift knob by da Bonehead!!!

The ole Tripper loves good brakes & good lights! I bought these new buckets from Vintique Inc. all pigtailed with blinkers & ready to go!
