Project: "Bad Idea"

[tones2SS]

Should look killer Jeff.
Yeah, some of those trucks on performancetrucks.net are down right NASTY!! In a good way.

I've been looking over all the builds on there, so far Spoolin's "Project Kermit" is my favorite.

Well well well, look what I found. I had no idea you even had this thread. As much as I hate to admit it, you've made more progress than I have. Ideas? You know we both have a TON, so no issue there. Now that you have two, the challenge will be splitting the time between them. Can't wait to see any and all progress and...like always, discuss many many many ideas.

BTW...you should've thrown this up in the Trucks section...just because.

Ok, it's only been a few years! After moving to Texas and starting life over from scratch, I'm finally working my dream job!! Somehow I've managed to keep from selling my project, even though it probably would've been the smart financial decision several times. As of this week I now have a small shop to work out of and moved the truck in yesterday. I plan on spending the next month or so getting workbenches and shelving built for the shop, then I can finally turn my attention to tearing this damn thing apart.
Here she is, comfortably resting in her new home.


Best part is the shop is less than 2 miles from my apartment, the guy that runs the place is also a design engineer for Painless wiring and has offered to help with the wiring when I reach that stage. I was gonna start tearing into the truck this weekend, but I'm going to GoodGuys Fri and Sat and if I can manage to find a few extra minutes I might pay attention to the girlfriend... LOL!

The project is dead, at least for me. Call it life getting in the way, working too much to even touch the truck or just losing all interest, but I threw in the towel. I signed the title over to my Dad and I'm letting him do what he wants with it, only condition being that if he decides he doesn't want it then it comes back to me.

But I bought something faster, meaner and way more capable of doing what I wanted the truck to do. Now it's not a matter of building a truck that can handle my barely there driving skills, it's a matter of improving my driving skills to match what this car will already do.

After a month of owning this car I want to meet every person that had a hand in getting it into production so I can shake their hand! Now to decide if I leave it alone until the warranty runs out or go for broke and void it right away...

Sounds like you made the right decision for yourself. Have fun and be careful with the new ride!

Now go test drive a '16 so you can trade it in. LOL
