That’s quite the itinerary... being pumped probably doesn’t describe it

It’s hands down the best thing I’ve done with hot rods.

That is an awesome route, so many great sites to see and drive. Can't wait to see pictures of the truck in action on the mountain roads. Congrats on your upcoming journey and the being able to put the other build BS you've endured out of your mind for a while.

PS: watch out for the buffalo in Yellowstone, they don't give a crap about your new paint job and perfect fenders (had one scratch it's ass on the grill of our F-250 the last trip there).

When you're down to tuning the stereo -- you're getting ready to hit the road.

Im a truck guy at heart, and that there is just as sweet as it gets. Very, very tastefully done, and should be extremely driveable. My 14 year old son would say “sick”.
Hope the tour is the best ever for you Greg! Take lots of pics for us, and enjoy the ride.

It looks great Greg. I love the inlay on the seat and door panels. They did a amazing job. All we need now is for them to tote it down and hand you th keys!

Thanks guys.....

Funny -- laying here in Scottsdale tonight -- flew down to look at a house or two (actually tried to buy one today but that's another story) -- and I got to thinking that this truck was being built to be my little daily driver in Sun Valley.... Where - quite frankly - there is NOWHERE to drive to... no shows... no car scene -- just a tiny town with very few streets or stop lights. Maybe it was a bit "over the top" for there.... so moving to Scottsdale will be just perfect for it!! LOL

Funny how things ebb and flow..... and somehow things work out in the end.

Personally I'm just so thankful to have CHRA building it - because it sure looks to exceed my expectations.

I will put a tow strap in the little bed coffin for when Charley needs to be dragged off the road.

To think that this was on the H of F tour when it took off from Denver.... then was seen again when we stopped at CHRA last year -- and now it's actually going to be ON the tour.... and amazingly I'm still alive to drive it. Pretty cool really.

You guys remember when Ed and Charley left me this kind note and welcome wave when it first was started. Seems like eons ago doesn't it??

Remember it like it was yesterday, it was the 2nd tour, 2014, just after Ed dragged us over the Colorado's summits (talking about white knuckling it). You were supposed to be there, Big Lil was waiting to surprise you In Pleasanton, but you were too busy building a cave in Sun Valley.

I'm blessed to be apart of this mess. Since i went WAY outa my comfort zone in 2013 when Ed called it the Muscle Car road trip.

Would of never found it, if not for this site.
