ha ha thanks. I hope it looks even better after its all painted up. Painting once its together is kinda a pain in that *** but I'll make due. It looks so small now. Can't wait to get it back in the truck.

I dropped my dash and a pillar pod off at the body shop for paint this morning. Guy said I might not get it back till sometime next week.I was like "what? I thought you guys had a 1 day turn around here" I know the owner so I was picking on the estimate guy. Hopefully I can have everything back together in a week or 2 and be back on the road

I don't know what that is or what it does lol. The guy at the shop said all my stuff should be fine so if anything happens. I'm calling him up and saying you were wrong fix it.


95 Don't be jealous till its in and running ha ha. Its been a while in the making.

Looks great, what color are you painting it?

You and Max can race at the Mopar Nationals next year.
