I just read through this entire thread. Very inspiring to everyone. The history on the truck, the attention to detail....Great job-- and I'll be looking forward to seeing the updates. I wish I had a 1/10 of your patience. Makes me want to tear down my truck to the frame and go to town, so its "New" when I'm done.

Hi all, I'm away from home for a while so there won't be any updates to the Pumpkin. I just wanted to give a shout-out and a big thank you to Rich (77&79F250), I've been trying to track down a part for close to three years with no luck. Rich checked and had one, got it out to me right away.
Thanks Rich .
Thanks Rich .

I knew the mechanical part would go fairly quickly and expected it to slow down when I got to the paint and body work part, just didn't expect it to go this slow.
Originally I was going to have it done professionally but changed my mind and decided to do it myself, so now it's a learning curve, and a slow one at that .

Hey guys, hope you all had a merry Christmas. I've been home on Christmas break for a couple of weeks and have to leave tomorrow to go back to Boston .
Didn't really have any time to do anything on the Pumpkin this time but apparently ol' Santa thought I was a good little boy this past year. One of his elfs (that bears a striking resemblance to my UPS guy) dropped this off on my door step this morning, a little late but that's okay, I know he's been pretty busy.
Maybe I'll get to use it this year.
I'll post updates as things happen.
Hope all of you have a good year ahead of you.

Mike each update makes it worth the wait, can't wait to see what tips you supply us when preparing and spraying.
