I agree about the mobile app and signatures. It is annoying. But of all the things to have to complain about, that's a very minor one.

The Crew Cab looks like a fun project. What's in store for it?

Waiting on the guy to get me pics of the intake.

I bought the crew for the engine. Gonna try to part the rest out.

What’s good in it that you aren’t keeping?

Picked up my big trailer tonight. The tongue is solid!

Looks like he did a great job. I'm sure there'll be plenty of inspections this weekend...

Josh, the cab and front doors are pretty decent, so is the front clip. Truck didn't habe a transmission when I bought it. I'll be pulling the engine, and engine mounts off the frame, and hopefully the radiator. The rest is up for grabs. I posted the truck for sale for $400 for cab/frame, $200 for the 10.25 rear axle. Or $500 complete minus engine/trans.

Guessing tires are next on his list for that truck though.

Just got off the phone with Tony. They had some bad weather today. They are ok but don't have power and might not for up to a week. I'll let him fill us in with details as he is able. I offered support/assistance. He said they had in under control.

Y'all stay safe out there. It's rumbling here but hasn't done much. Fingers crossed it stays that way.

Yep, it was a pretty awful storm. Drove down 42 to Sanford last night and there were branches in the road from it.

Tony, hope you are weathering it alright, let us know if we can do anything to help.
