Done, and running SWEET!

Actually not mine. Wish it was though!

Buddy of mine who is too modest to pat himself on the back blush "52 Carl" who is a member of this site, actually picked this up earlier this year during one of our "hey, you ain't gonna believe what I found on Craigslist..." runs.

After removing about 3 inches of fiberglass someone put on the floorboard (ingenious way to fix the Fred Flintstone dilemma I guess) and an engine rebuild, it's on the road, and he's rubs it in every chance he gets.

Told him I was going to post this and the pics one day, just to get his goat!

Gotcha!

Got any side shots? I like that he went with the white lettering on the tires and the classic baby moons sans beauty rings. cool

Looks too nice to be a truck that needed a floorboard.

Great looking truck. I'll bet has as happy as a cat in a milk shed now that he's got it "done". They aren't ever "done". Sweet!

One advantage to being this far done is when you do any work on it your hands don't get too dirty.
