Saw one of these in person (might have been this one) when Petit LeMans was in town. I had no idea what it was, and had to google images when I got home from work that day. It was behind a new GT40, but I still had no idea what it was. Looks killer on the street!

fleet 11-03-2018 02:09 AM

IIRC Greg’s cab was stretched.

From here, the cab doesn’t look stretched on this one.

GregWeld 11-03-2018 08:05 AM

No — I stretched the chassis not the cab - cab and bed are stock dimensions.... and yes - these are tight little cabs. I’m still shaking my head thinking about my BIL Rudy driving - and we didn’t change seat positions between us... Rudy is 6’3” ish.... I’m 4’ 3” or less....

His knee did repeatedly push in the 4 way flasher button on the column. LOL

fleet 11-03-2018 12:38 PM

Greg,

Where would you put a stretch be in one of these trucks...lengthen the doors or add room behind the seats?

Wow
 
I put my eyeballs on Greg's truck today at GG Scottsdale. Talk about eye candy, definitely passed the eyeball test. One of the coolest trucks I've ever seen. Love the color, its awesome. Its a fantastic quality build also.

I saw you , but you were busy. Congrats.

Well damn you!! I don’t care how “busy” I am — you come tap me on the shoulder!! I looked for you every time I walked past the car - but never saw you so thought that perphaps you weren’t here! When we lined up for the awards thing — I walked over to see who was driving your car to see if it was you — but it looked like someone else so I thought — Well.... I guess DSE or someone is here represent it.

Dang I would have loved spending some time having you show me all the cool stuff with yours!

Stuart Adams 11-18-2018 06:42 PM

My bad, I should have. Yes I left about 1 ish.
I think your daughter was wondering who this guy is looking over and over your truck lol. Its amazing. Just can't get over the color in person.

It’s so funny about the damn gray! It’s like the #1 compliment and question.... “love it! What color is it?” I tell them it’s “Square D Gray”


LOL

We’ll get together somewhere else Stuart.... if I can - I plan to drag/drive the little POS to a few GG shows this coming season.... not for award gathering - but just because it’s fun to use the shows as an excuse to go somewhere. There’s still places I haven’t been in this ol’ world... and Gwen said she’s game to go hit some spots with it. DelMar would be one —- and I’ve never been to Columbus — and I’d like to do Pleasanton — and Seattle (Puyallup) etc. We also need to get the heck out of here in the summer — so Victoria would be a good place to hit too!

Stuart Adams 11-19-2018 06:14 PM

Sounds great. I hope we can catch up this next year. Hopefully not at Mayo, I go twice a year. LOL.

Again the color of your truck is so great. Its so rich with body and soul in that grey.

glassman 11-22-2018 07:48 AM

Any of you guys see the Bitchin Rides episode Tuesday nite? (11/20)?

Gregs being filmed and someone asked "what color is this?)

They did half the episode on the GG road tour.

Love your truck Greg!! You have it back yet? My cars still there at CHRA.

Juggernaut 11-22-2018 09:15 AM

I wondered when someone would bring that up!

Everyone at Kindig-It looked like they were in awe of the truck, like the rest of us. :D

Thanks Mike.


Harold brought it to Scottsdale for the Good-Guys show. It won another Top 10 there.

They completely disassembled the front end and repainted it. It’s all road rash free now.

None of that was scripted by the way. I didn’t know they were filming for the tv show. I thought the guys with cameras were the crew we had traveling with us for the tour.

Glad you mentioned it Mike. I just watched it on demand.

Jewel of a truck Greg...wow!

waynieZ 11-22-2018 03:44 PM

I saw it the other day, Nice bit of coverage.

WSSix 11-23-2018 05:45 AM

Well, I need to find the Bitchin Rides episode then. I don't have TV. I do like the guys at Kindig. They seem to be very genuine in their actions and interactions and the cameras are there just to capture it all. They do fantastic work, too.

Congrats, Greg.

Trey,

A few places you can get the ep.

Btw-Discovery is turning Velocity into ‘Motor Trend’.

Do you happen to know the name of the episode? My on demand only lists 4 episodes at a time by the episode name. ( I would watch all 4, but my family wouldn't like it very much ).

Thank you.

Tim john--- 11-23-2018 05:20 PM

I think it is/was called "The Snowball Effect" ? Episode # 7

Tim john---

WSSix 11-24-2018 11:09 AM

Thanks guys. I didn't think to check Amazon. I've got prime.

I hope Motor Trend doesn't ruin Velocity channel.

BTW Trey, your earlier comment about the guys at Kindig-it being geniune, the same guys you see on TV are the same in person. Dave came on tour with us in '16 and i spent some time with him, mostly parking lot bs sessions after the days drive. Really nice guy, same exact guy you see on TV, funny and whitty

WSSix 11-26-2018 07:35 PM

That's great to hear, Mike. I still need to take the time to locate the episode. I've just been too busy. Maybe for Christmas vacation, lol.

GregWeld 11-28-2018 07:53 AM

I agree with Mike... The crew at Kindig is a hoot — and very talented (they’ve built two cars for my friend Ron Meis).

Dave is a first class guy. I’ve seen episodes where - if you didn’t know him — he may come off a little cocky - but he truly is not. As Mike said - he’s funny and very quick witted! You’d better be on your game if you want to fling a little you know what with him.

His GTO could make my heart skip a beat!

The Invicta... the interior is a bit much for my taste but still a beautiful car!

Sorry, missed this. In the header (description of said episode) It'll say "and a road trip comes thru town".

kwhizz 11-29-2018 05:21 AM

Dave did Ron's Roadster also ……..
