Well Joe....do you see what you've done now??? You might've tried saying something like "diamond tuck isn't my favorite, but your truck looks pretty nice....", but nooo.....you had to blurt exactly what was on your mind. When you were a kid did your parents frequently say "don't make me reach back there" ????
Jim....I'm hoping that you keep the pics posted & post your progress as well.

Well....I just logged on today and I tried to see your album. You must have already removed it. That's a shame, and I encourage you to re-post the pics, if you have already taken them down, and stick around with us. But I can say this--that guy is out of line. Don't let somebody like that ruin what is a good forum for us all to learn and have a good time. He's probably out wiping armor all on his new truck. It was very rude. And I second everybody else, hey Joe, let's see your truck!

Jim,
I think your truck looks great. The key is that YOU are enjoying it and having FUN!!!! I love old trucks whether their all stock or highly "darksided." People flip me some grief because I'm running a non-Ford engine and I have gone to the darkside, but when the average Joe and Jane are looking at my truck, they appreciate it and know that it's old and it's pretty cool.....just like yours. When it's cruising down the road and you are as happy as can be, everyone else will be smiling back at'cha. Enjoy and keep up the great work!!!!!

My vote is to put the pics of your truck back up. You know what counts for you and makes you happy dont worry about what others think. I care bout what others think but you know what as long as Im happy and pleasing me then what they think doesnt matter that much. Exceptions are cops and state patrolmen if stopped by them I smile and agree with everything they are saying.

Thanks for putting your pictures back up. You even added a few more before I could ask, keep them coming. Negative comments are almost unheard of on this forum.
Now if you ask the group how they think you should proceed with a portion of your project, you are bound to get every conceivable option. But, with those discussions almost to a man, they say; "here is what I would do, but it's your truck do what makes you happy"
That your truck is a daily driver makes you way cool in my book.

Pay no attention to that knucklehead,he's likely a snot nosed kid that been handed everything he has and wouldn't know how to do anything for himself. Glad you didn't pull your pictures. You have a great looking truck and can do the changes as you see fit in your own sweet time. If all he's driving is a 2006 (dime a dozen) it will take years before he'll ever gets a 2 thumbs up
. So stick around, your one of us, he's not.
