The kindest cut
G'Day......I've been quiet lately while I rebuild my shed, but thought I would update you on my F-1
I mentioned a while ago that as the paint on my F-1 was blistered on the roof and firewall during the shed fire that I would put it into a shop for a chop and paint
I stopped by the shop Saturday and had a look how things were going.
3" of excess altitude has "left the building"
They have only taken 1 1/2 out of the back window, and then lowered it 1 1/2
It is all only tacked at the moment, but looks awesome.
At 3" it doesn't look overly chopped, but I am resisting the temptation to ask for another inch
The truck isn't low enough to look right with more than 3" out of it, and my driveway won't handle a really low truck.
I finally invested in a digital camera, so I will drop back and take some photos.....and then try and work out how to post them.

Dang, I missed my chance, I was just fixing to chime in with a some really good smart-alek comment about teasing us with the pics and not delivering.....
The chop looks really good. I'm glad to see that something silly like your shed burning down hasn't slowed you down much.
