Sock f'ers and THEM, lowed my lid...

Rounded up the group yesterday and got my truck chopped, spent most of this morning in the garage looking at it while drinking my coffee with a smile on my face...

HUGH THANKS TO Tyler, Josh, Dave, Andrew, Mike, and Brett(and your buddy who's name i fogot already).
I've been talking about doing it for months and just finally said **** it, let's do it. Everyone gathered, blue tape flew, sawzall's worked and everyone's input, ideas got it done. It looks perfect, just what i wanted, got my work cut out for me to finish the welding and get this thing ready for the roundup, my goal. Andrew made on hell of a bad *** stew that warmed the bellies

here's a few pics, before and after....

 

and the finished result....

That was a damn good time and I think it looks way better. Good Job- I'll compile some video when I figure out how.

 

Looks great! Nothing like a bunch of friends gittin' together and cuttin' stuff up.

 

...nice job guys, this is history in the making, ... those times you will never forget with good friends. Nice truck.

 

looks great hope to see you back here soon....

I was glad to help. What a freakin blast. Good friends and good sawzalls. What are choppin next?

Still can't get "I'm a stop light, can ya see me?" out of my head, i keep laughing

 

Jeff...Looks good. Hopefully I'll get to see it up here some time.

 

Glad I could help.
I'll upload some of my pictures in a bit.

you didn't let Josh or Dave near the welder did you. if so you will have lots of weld clean up to do.

I hear they are much better at using their hands then tools. LOL

 

I got my pictures uploaded.
A shot of chasing Andrew in the Shoebox, only 2 quarts of oil on my windshield from this short trip.

Some Welding

 

Someone Please tell me what these pockets in the door tops are for.
Cool Trans hump
No Top
Jeff's not going to see any street lights .

 

There is a metal strap that pivots from the body and slides in that slot.
It limits travel just like the little strap in the jamb of newer cars.
Wish I had known yesterday was the magic day.
Good luck getting it ready for roundup.

 

Looks awesome! I've been following this build...I like it!

 

Lookin good! I need some friends like that. LOL

 

Great time! Even Tommy(a Toyota 4x4 nut) had fun .
Its a good thing for us Sock ****ers that THEM guys from Texas like coming around, its fun watching THEM work .

 

That was a good day. Glad I could stand around, drink beer, get in the way and make dumb comments.

 

Wish I coulda been there, but I did get my 64 donor car stripped.

 

Come on!..Don't belittle your contribution.
YOU are now the OFFICIAL Sock ****ers Cook.
Leave it to a Sock ****er to make stew with Yellow and Red
carrots but man it sure was good.

 

PBR makes me want to bring mine up and do the same..... LOOKS GREAT!!

I'll send the pic's soon..

 

...and nobody went to hospital (either from wielding the Sawzall or from my cooking )

 

Hey dudes,

I will be in the ATL sometime in March or May for the AAAA show.

We need to hook up.

 

Just give us dates Rash?
Got any parts you want to unload while you're here?

 

Looks good Jeff! Better stay busy if it's going to the round up.

After all you're going to be there a few days ahead of the rest of us, right?

 

Hide the sawzall!

AAAA show? Is that like 2 AA meetings back-to-back?

 

Hell Yea! HAMB royalty.....my ******s are hard
Just kidding, let us know dates and we'll make it happen.
I'll be the first to say it.....Sock ****ers with a Curious Rash....should have listened to my mother

 

KICK ***!! I picked up a 31,32 chevy pickup in about the same shape last year put cant start working on it till my shop is done.
With any luck Ill be doing the same in a few months.
Do you still have the wood bracing, mine is gone!

 

Give us a heads up and we'll roll out the welcome sock.

 

I'll leave a list of commands with Dave on how to deal with Rashy,
sometimes "No" won't make him stop.
