Looks like I am not the first bumpside to make the list but they just made me gearhead of the week this week. I had put my pictures on the website awhile back and they contacted me to tell them more about the story of the truck. Pretty cool to be chosen for it and represent for the bumpsides out there.

That is great.

Re: Gearhead of the Week
Great job Jeff! You and your dad are to be commended for surpassing the saving of one more bumpside. Henry Ford would be impressed.

That's neat. I have read a lot of good mechanic stories and it help me be motivated.
