It's alive and running....roundup bound!

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by PBRmeASAP, Mar 18, 2007.

  1. Finally after almost 5 years of owning it i got to drive it yesterday for the first time. Still got a bunch of things to finish and rework, not to mention all the bugs to figure out and fix, but i don't see any reason i can't get it ready in the next week to make it to the Roundup!

    The mix match tires look good on the truck, I've got the same thing on a rolling chassis and didn't think it would look good when together.

  15. PBR,
    I just picked up a Chevy cab like that, this last summer. In fact, I had about the same thing in mind for mine. Looks good. I already saved the picture to my archives.

  25. Glad to finally see it outside, how does she run??
    Where's the sock, I figured Andrew would have it hung with pride on your
    truck for the first run.

    I'll sweep the garage so we can paint it when you get here. :) :)

    I can't wait for a ride, congratulations.
