December truck work
I started prepping the replacement box for my '76.
I'm not going to make it all pretty,just need to remove some pin striping,rough it up a bit and throw some paint on it.
the problem is going to be getting the garage warm enough for the paint.

Well at least you have a garage..

I put a tuner in my truck and will be getting a set of gauges at the end of the month. Don't know if I will get them isntalled this month or not.

Beer fridge, garage and some trucks. Don't get much better than that. I think if we ever meet up we will get along fine. We seem to think along the same lines. Beer fridge (with beer), garage and some trucks.
