It's been a long weekend.

Some of you may already know that Kenny was injured over the weekend at a Rock Crawling event.

He was ejected from the vehicle as it rolled over landing on him crushing his skull.

He was life flighted to St John Hospital in Tulsa, OK where they put over 20 plates and more then 30 screws in his head. They had to removed some of his brain tissue that was exposed to prevent infection. They feel that the loss of brain tissue shouldn't be a problem.

He also suffered a Fractured Cheak Bone, Broken Foot & Ruptured Ear Drum.

It has been a trying couple days for the family but it seems like Kenny is doing incredibly good actually better then they expected. So good that this morning he was able to eat breakfast and they will be moving him out of ICU.

At this point and time it doesn't appear that he has any problems.

It is a miracle that he is alive and doing so good all I ask is that everyone please say a prayer for Kenny and his family.

There are a bunch of people sending Kenny T-shirts & magazines as a get well wish and if you would like to do the same you can send them to:

Travis Ball
13821 toepfer rd
garfield, Ar 72732

I am sure he would appreciate it.

Good Morning All,

Well, I have good -- No, I have GREAT News Kenny is home resting with his family.

So since he's home I figure I would continue updating all of the hard he has been doing on the truck.

The AAW Wiring harness installed and almost complete in this picture.
One of the best features is that all of the wires dead head at the fuse panel.
This helps to keeps all of the wiring super clean under the dash and makes for an easy install.



The Sparco seats installed in the truck.
The seat cushion is going to take a little work but they may work.



More pictures of the Dash wiring.



Air Ride Controller -- waiting for a home in the Center console.



We have plenty of update that I can share between now and Christmas so keep watching the BB's.


I also want to thank everyone that kept Kenny and his family in there thoughts and prayers this past week.
It has really meant a lot to them and everyone close to them.

Life has taught me one thing people may come and go in your life but great friend are irreplaceable
and I look forward to being able to call Kenny when I'm bored at work just to see what's going on.

Truck is looking great Marty as you already know. Its kind of funny how when something like what happened to Kenny makes you stop and think about how fast life can change. Its great that Kenny is home now,you always feel better at home. Is the truck still going to be at the world of wheels?

I doubt it will make Chicago. But since your local you are welcome to come over anytime and look at the truck.

Good afternoon All,

Taking everyone way back to May 26,2006 for this picture.

Dave from Comp Fab did the Sheetmetal Dash Conversion
www.comfab.com
I did the designed layout for the quages.



Then Doc over at Docs Kustom cut the custom Dash Panel.
www.docskustom.com
All the Guages sit at different heights instead just being flush mounted.



Kenny put the Dash in for the last time on his watch.



Remember these ?
Just wait till you see them in the dash !!
