MalibuJim Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Hey everyone, It has been 4 years since I started this project so I guess I better step it up, although at the same time I do have my daily duties here in Manufacturing. I told the powers to be that I can have it finished by Christmas 09. Ought to be interesting to say the least. Here are a couple more pics for the album. I do have the brakes done (plumbed like a CH) and the EMC6-250 is under the hood and everything fits pretty good. The front sheet metal will be going to the body shop next week for straightening/priming and I'm planning on final paint around middle of May. I'll try to keep my album updated with pics when I have some worth showing.See ya, Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Great to hear from you Jim. I've been wondering how you were progressing. Just this morning I helped to ensure PAI's continued success by robbing the kids' college fund, and spending a bunch on money on your "R" model parts!! Momma aint gonna be pleased when she finds out. Maybe you could con your superiors into producing more B model parts when they see your truck!! Great to see progress!Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

MalibuJim Posted March 30, 2009 Author Share Posted March 30, 2009 Doesn't look like you're gonna make it to our show this year! Aug. 22nd, 2009! Better get busy!! LOL Probably not Barry, However, the owner of the company did make a bet with me last Christmas that I could'nt have the truck done and driving by Christmas '09. And I took it!!!!!!!! No pressure! Of course, every time I get a little momentum going he brings some PAI business for me to work on. But, I think I can take his money.I'll keep ya posted, Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
