Wow! What a build mate
Marty have any close ups of the Vcovers? That bay has to be 1 of the best Twin Turbo looking set ups imo :yes:

Thank you - I am amazed at how nice it turned out. It almost seems empty in there. Like it needs more stuff.

I just can't wait to see what Tracy does with the Interior.

Kenny is finally happy the truck and it's parts have left his shop.

I can't wait to get the truck home and actually turn on the Stereo and here how the Kicker stuff sounds

I am not sure if you guys have noticed the Picture Quality is much better.
Tracy can actually operate a camera.

Sorry Kenny.

awr68 09-09-2009 07:32 PM

Nice! That's certainly a step in the right direction!! It won't be long now!! I lost track....how long was it at Kenny's?

G-Body 09-09-2009 07:57 PM

I think it was at Kenny's 2 years. It would have been there less time if I had more money and then of course there was that little accident of his last Dec where he lost 2/3 of his skull.

But it's all good.

In the end the truck started 05 05 05 and there has never been a hurry to finish the truck so when it's done it's done.

Garage Dog 65 09-10-2009 08:45 AM

Is Beautifull !

Hey Tracy, how much material does it take to do a mini-truck - 1 nauga and half a chinchilla for the accents ?? :D

Amazing project regardless of the time it took to get here. Congrats, Marty!
(I think thats actually a normal amount of time for us regular folk to get a project done. We get spoiled seeing how fast some of these projects get finished when money is no object)
