yes sir, as soon as she's paid for she'll be headed to Roger for some Lovin'. Plan to throw the whole alphabet at it, CAI, LTs, ORY, HPT, maybe LSXRT if I start to $hit gold...I want to see what she'll do FBO before getting talked into a ProCharger(not that it'll be a hard sell)



maybe I should start an intro thread so you can have your build thread back, sorry for the hijacking

Ha no worries, I hijack everyone else threads LOL


I still need to find the money for LT's ORY and stall for my truck. Trying to buy a new house and feed my addiction is not working in my favor.

ya SWMBO wants a house before I get a new ride too...She also wants the air ride on her Caddy fixed before ANYTHING else happens. The system that's in there now is a total hack-job done by Phat Customz in Skankorage. That car is her baby, was her first car ever. You might recognize...

She used to work there. Now she's across the parking lot, she's a tattoo artist at Artic Ink.

Pic of the pillar mount now painted. Not 100% match but about as close as I am going to get.

Looks good Andy! If you have any of that paint left over, Daniel may be interested in it. He may want to look at your truck to see how it turned out in person. He's been considering painting both sides black, but I keep telling him that cloth stuff on the right side pillar isn't going to take paint well...

I don't know how I talk my wife into this stuff but I just convinced her to let me buy Hp Tuners and then I am surfing Craiglist and find these....

17" 10" wide centerline avenger rims. Won't list the price till wife picks them up tomorrow but even if they are a little weathered it's a STEAL. Owner says no pitting or curb rash..

If a good cleaning and polish doesn't take care I will just get the powdercoated.
