Gregg,

You are one of the richest men out there. Not because of what you own, but because the friends you know and have known, and your love and respect for life. Keep it up, it's a rare quality!

True that, Chris! Thanks!

Bruce and I had chats about what our lives were like, and the fact that we could die without regret. The bucket list was pretty "full".... It is your love of life that makes passing so hard. After all, you're going to miss doing more of it! But then again - you think - WTF - life has been good and it's been lived at full speed.

Greg,
Thanks for sharing about Mr Leven. I too saw the Jay Leno show about the shoebox Ford. I had never heard about Mr. Leven prior to that show and when Jay mentioned his name I googled it and didn't find anything ( spelled it wrong).

I came here tonight, what a tribute...

Somewhere in there is a picture of modifying the gap between the bed and the cab..... it was just UGLY.

Great looking detail on the front of the bed, most will never know what's been done...perfect. Same goes for the bullnose, a "factory" appearing piece that just looks better. Will it still release the hood?

I like the custom touches to the bed. It's amazing how narrow that hood looks in the shot from the front.
