    Yea I know how that is. Thats mostly why I can never finish anything lol

    Well I've got the room up on my shop now to put it in, but i still have to pour the concrete so it should be in there in a week or so. I'm not in a real hurry since I still have two other cars under construction too lol after the suspension and bed are done i'll finish a car and then have the truck painted.

    Well the plan is to go back the factory orange and have the stripes painted on instead of the decals. Let me know what you have. I always need stuff lol
