Lets see your truck RIGHT now

Go and take a picture of your truck, exactly how it is right now, if the hoods up, leave if, if it's covered in dust or snow, leave it. Don't change anything, just take a picture today of exactly how it is. I think it would make the projects seem a lot more real to see them exactly how they are in progress rather than at a certain stage or set up for a photoshoot.



Still a long ways to go for me, not so much fun working on the street, espcially one of the most busy in a small town (where no one has anything else to do but watch you work), lol

Hasn't changed any since this picture, we had pulled it out of the shop to clean up the place.

OK, so this is going to be embarassing.....

I did like you said, I went out and took a pic without doing a thing. My truck is buried in the mess of my garage. I've been buys with other projects and the poor truck has been neglected (apparently so has cleaning the garage)

My son and I got the engine pulled this afternoon. There ain't nothing better than an afternoon of wrenching.

Great idea! I will get some pics this weekend and toss em up. Besides, I want Stephen to see how PERFECT my bed would look on his truck before I cut this thing up! The patina matches and everything!
