Your lucky My father only thought of cars a transportation. But he always let me have the cars I wanted and came to get me more then a few times when I got stuck. Your lucky you got to enjoy this with your dad, it must be great. Its been so long sence I drove my car, I might have my wife tow me around the neighborhood with my truck. As long as you can sit in it its good to drive and enjoy.

Brandon,

I'm looking forward to seeing it (in Columbus)!.....

Thanks guys! It is always a great feeling to hear a project run.

We spent all day yesterday installing the Dynamat Extreme in the cab. We have a little more to put on the firewall, but we got it almost all in. What a difference that stuff makes.

Sounds awesome, what type of mufflers are you running?

They are a 2-chamber Flowmaser knock off. I have full length headers into an x-pipe to the mufflers. I took the lazy way out, since my 4-link gets really busy and it really tight up against the bed floor when aired down - - so I just turned the mufflers down in front of the rear axle.

I got all of the Dynamat installed with the exception of the doors, Radio and speakers installed. It sounds pretty good – Focal up front, Infinity rears w/ the Blaupunkt head unit. I think I may need to add a small sub 8″ or something, but we’ll see.







We got the driver’s side front fender and inner fender on last night. I’m sure we will have to adjust it some when we go to put the hood on, but so far it all seems to fit up like it did the last time we had it together!!!

Thanks! It is looking increasingly unlikely that we will have time to get much of any of the interior done - - -read: "I'm too slow to get it together". That being said, come Hell or High Water (which we've had plenty of), we are going to try to make it to Columbus.

My wife has been extremely patient with the fact that I leave every night once our daughter is ready for bed and head to the shop. I think she is trying to eliminate any excuses that I may have for not getting this thing done before Kid #2 arrives.
