i bagged the dime in may of 04, this happened in june of 04:





so it was down from june 04, got it back on the road april of 06 looking like this:





then i started tearing it down in july of 06 to tub for 20's, and now it looks like this:







also, i bought the burb in august, and you guys know what that thing looks like underneath. I was supposed to get it fixed and road worthy this weekend, but the dude got behind, so now the burb won't be road worthy till after christmas sometime. All i got left on the s10 is putting the dash back in, making brackets for fuse box and computer, hooking up the prop valve for the brakes and putting it back together. I feel ya on the project hell. The dime has been bagged since may of 04 and i've got to drive it about 2 1/2 months of the almost 4 years it's been done, lol.

My trucks been down for 2 years now... Been through a traditional section roof chop top, then a hand fabed roof frame with hand made roof skin chop top, then back to a standard height window roadster then to another chop top(you will see), also on my thrid version of a hood, new tail lights, thrid version of a complete sterio. New seats, new steel Dash, new steel interior.

all in all though its comin back together steadily its like 1 step back and 2 forward these days.. Aimin to roll it to a body shop first quarter 08 then Drop Zone here i come

Check out it out on the new Domination video Shenanigans(sp) too! Shot at some time in the last 2 years.. prob one of the most underconstruction UC features ever!

my wagon has been down for over 2 years. I just ordered 2 new CCE pumps and all the material to cover the interior, so come summer it should be driveable.
