Yea let's not get in bad with the "Po-Po" it'll be done soon enough . I just can't get over how you just get in there and go to town . If I'd have that much motivation I'd be driving mine next week when I start my new job.

my motivation is having to get this truck out of my friends shop asap! :lol: my friend is cool about me having my truck parked at his shop but i don't like taking advantage of the situation plus he got me my new wheels for free so the sooner I finish the better I feel about it all.

Marz.....I hate you now. I just saw an image that well....Plain and simply, I want to happen for real now. Roadster with a chopped down windshield, stock curved shape just cut down, with the SWB setup, I think it would look sick.
