What a neat setting for taking pics....awesome!

Your truck is a fantastic combination of big industrial and wicked custom. I really like it.

Keep at it
Bobby

Great job! Can't wait to see it completed. Do you have any plans for another project after this is done?
By the way whats the story on the building? I'll bet it has some interesting history.

drbroman,

I think fixnair was asking about the history of the building.

Great progress made on your truck. I really like how it looks.

Thank you!

Oops, sorry))

It is a usual warehouse hangar.

5 years ago there there was a fire. Then it was empty.

The organization has decided to take it down and construct a line for driving school.

Hey Doc, You rock. Nice work. Almost done. I had a steering wheel like that once. It does not work for off road or any high speed maneuvers. It tore up my hands and broke my wrist. Just saying. Looks good though.

Thanks!

I will try to drive with it a little. I think that this steering wheel could be the best for cruising)

Yes the wheel would be cool for cruising I think also. But I would not try to go off road jumping or racing with it. You are doing a fantastic job Doc.
