Didn't realize it had been so long since had I popped in here to see what was going on! Awesome progress -- can't wait to see it in person.

Thanks Eric. If the weather holds out, maybe I can get the initial run-through done this week then only have to touch up before Bloomsburg.

Yeah, been a little busy over the past few weeks...perhaps a little relentless

You'll be seeing it soon...hopefully with a couple other toys in place...

Thanks Scott. Amazing what cleaning up under there has done for the overall look of the truck too.

Having seen some of this progress first hand, some of the other people at the shows need to look out, this seems to be one bull that can't easily be tamed...

Did a little "bringing sexy back" tonight. No paint, lungs needed a break.

This little guy was all sorts of consternation when I got it. Just would not thread, no matter what I did. Apparently all it needed was a little coaxing with a pair of pliers (covered with a rag to protect the polished metal from getting dinged) to get it started, then it threaded right on in.
