    Rustygem, I HIGHLY recommend that show! There were nearly 900 cars last year, good food, a bunch of vendors, car art, etc... a great time...

    Woodland is kind of tucked away far off 80, but I think it's better that way...keeps the city idiots from taking over your town...

    Yeah, well to be honest with everyone watching I am a little disappointed too. We had two guys said they would be able to have driveable cars by a deadline, they had alot of help but somehow it didnt get done. We got Bennies done though so I guess 1 is better than none.

    I guess if this was easy though everyone would be doing it.

    Hey Dru, I am looking for something to send you to keep busy with for me! Thinking a 40's/50's truck! OR a 53/54 Chevy...that way I will have both of the hot body styles! I will let you know what I want done to it and you can take some liberties with it as well! LOL! Hows your RockStar? I decided against the chop I think and am just shaving, painting and the front end and bumpers are going lower!!!!

    Hey what happend to you guys? You tease us then leave us. J/K I know you got other projects, but could you flash some pics of your front suspension if you have it done. I"m building a 56 also and getting ready to do my bags, looking for some insight. Can't wait to see yours done.

    Working with friends is probably one of the best things about cars. Everyone's out there bustin' knuckles and having a good time.

    Well guys and gals, its 1-5-2010, I'm still putt'n along on my truck. With some changes in the way I wanted to build the truck and $$$$$, things have slowed down, but like I said we havent given up on that ol yellow *****..lol One thing I learned along the way are deadlines **** and they are uncalled for!!! Anyways it is getting closer and we have new picks, just gotta get them on here. All my buddies are getting ready for Viva and hopefully I'll be cruising through the desert with them...

    Just left the shop....Vince is cutting and chopping away. Inner fenders are getting trimmed to to clear the A arms, motor mounts are finished, spider caps are on,... he should have some pics up when he gets a chance.
