A motley crew, you, Eric, Dan, and Fred, I must say. (kidding)

You're going to have a brand new '83 Ford truck by the time you guys finish.

When your done with your truck, my truck needs a bit of work.

Seriously, looks good.

i found its a lot easier to pay a crew to work when everyone loves mom's home cookin'. we've got a 46 *****'s jeep on the platform when the truck is done, but if you wanna stop by with your rig, mom makes great spaghetti...

Bit of a drive.

Just gonna let the old '81 truck die of natural causes; probably start on the ole '55 F100 soon.

A buddy of mine was in the Navy back in the early 70's.
(U.S.S. Ethen Allen SSBN608).

I felt real sorry for him in his last year in the Navy(sarcasm).

Stationed in Hawaii.

Update your progress (pics) when you get back.
