Thanks Mike.
Your cab looks great. And real nice job on the floors.
I have a feeling that you'll make us all green with envy soon.

I said if before and I'll say it again.... I'm grabber green with admiration.. Envy? No.... But I sure as heck appreciate the attention to detail, workmanship, and performance.

A snot-slinging 445FE will be in my future. Thanks for the motivation. My bank account is gonna hate me.....

Dude, you and the rest of the boys have inspired me. Let's keep this going. All of us that have been there and done it need to help and inspire the new guys that are sticking a toe in. If for no other reason than to advance and inspire and prove that our trucks (Fords) are the best ever built and the complete definition of what a truck is.
And yes I've had a a few.

Its gotta be a great feeling and a relief that all your hard work and $$ has paid off with something you are more than satisfied with. Gotta be fun driving it.

Hopefully I will get to see it sometime at a Cal get together or something now that I got my truck running again.

Nice Job!

Thanks John.
I suck at making GTGs but I love to bench race whenever possible. Especially if beer is involved.

Glad you're happy with it turbo. I'm anxious to get mine buttoned up as well, getting closer with my swap, hope mine goes as good as yours did.

Restoration hardware - AMK Products Inc !
They have kits but check out the "bulk" section for individual fasteners.
