  1. Starting to put it all back together http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0031.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0032.jpg The tailgate half way through. I wanted the truck to be custom but clean and simple. I figured it could get a little personal touch on a smaller area like the tailgate. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0067.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0068.jpg All done except for the orange at the top and some clear http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0069.jpg
  2. Fresh out of the booth. This was my first time seeing the color I picked with clear. I wish I went a little brighter on the orange. It looks great in the sun but without light it looks dull and really copper, almost brownish. http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMG_0687.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMG_0685.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMG_0694.jpg Without sunlight http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMG_0684.jpg With Sunlight http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMAG0033-1.jpg
  3. Starting the refinishing after the body work was done http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMG_0665.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMG_0664.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMG_0660.jpg Taped off in the booth http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMG_0669.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMG_0667.jpg First coat of color http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMG_0672.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMG_0678.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/IMG_0679.jpg
  4. Since 2006 my truck has been a weekend cruiser truck that I have slowly thrown some mods to. The past two years I have started to get a little more serious about modding my truck and competing in truck pulls and wanting to start drag racing it. Due to some rust starting to pop up I started by getting the body and paint taken care of. I started this two years ago but a deployment backed it up quite a bit so its just now getting finished. I am still trying to get pics of the driveline mods that I have been recently started on. Here is some pics of how it started http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/316074_29_full.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/l_5bb103450f3be203bbb6ce791692118e.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/l_a9da715bcddd07863e6af4640999cd04-1.jpg Action shot of my first pull http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/l_9bd18a3e830a2e64f98f2a5a7c7cc8b5.jpg Starting to debadge it and prep for paint http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/p_00013-1.jpg The sanding begins http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/100_0597.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/100_0504.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/100_0506.jpg http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk251/XChris1632X/Toys/Hannah/100_0501.jpg
  5. Rob if you want a down payment sell your body, not your car!
  6. Anyone who suggests anything other than this is an idiot and shouldn't be trusted!
  7. How do you even get into that place to work? I heard that you have to know someone special to get into that place. I am hoping put a bit of effort and love into my grass this year. The problem is that I have 4 acres and it seems like it will be difficult to increase quality without a lot of money and time.
  8. Congrats. I am in the process of trying to finish my degree so that I can put in for a fighter pilot spot in the Air National Guard. My problem is I am running out of years to get it done.
  9. I have not made it out to the barn yet since we talked. I am going to try to get out there tom. I have just been really busy.
  10. Since wakeboard boats are not deep v hull boats they dont cut throught the water very well. Instead of riding each wake the boats tend to just smack into them. It is nothing that is horrible but if you arent paying attention you could be suprised with one hell of uncomfortable bump. I do not have much problem with water spray though.
  11. My boat has the most uncomfortable ride of any boat I have been in at cruising speeds when choppy. When wakeboarding at slow speeds it is great. It is heavy on the wheel when loaded down. When the water is smooth I can cruise 45 no problem but as soon as a wake comes it can wake you up for sure. You just have to remember your are not getting a v hull boat. Any wake boat I have been in regardless of v drive or d drive, feels like a bathtub in the water and they plow through everything instead of cut through it. I still wouldn't trade it for anything else. I have learned to anticipate the chop and work the throttle and steering when cruising and none of my family or kids even have complained. As far as storage, does Tue trailer have a swing out tongue? That cuts off quite a bit. Are you already figuring removing the swim platform for garage? My stays out all summer. It isn't anymore tear on it than it being in the water for me. Just keep it covered and a good wax job on it.

    Fishing?

    I say we do a CR tournament. One regular avid fishermen in a boat with one less experienced CR member who wants to participate. I have a 16' Lund with livewell, finder, and trolling motor to use. I love to fish but never catch shit! I call dibs on acklac07 as a partner since he obviously does something right;)
  13. Worst decision ever! I was swapping skis to different trailers since I sold my twin 3 seaters. I took the RXP out for a spin and after about a hundred yards past the no wake zone, I quickly decided to turn the fuck around. Will try again in June!
  14. Sam I might have a cam for that somewhere. I know I have an Edlebrock intake. Are these heads 906 or 062 castings?
  15. The sync is more problems than what its worth in my opinion. They have some driveline issues but other than that they are alright. It wont be my next purchase or anything but they are decent buys. I have always been a Chevy guy but since I have worked for Ford, my ideas about them have changed as I have seen a huge rise in quality.
  16. I dont know where he was getting it but at Krieger Ford we dont even use Motorcraft washer fluid. I have never even seen it. I am sure its possible they might put it in the brand new cars but I would think there are many other options you can obtain easier.
  17. Car isnt available anymore, someone lock this up Shanton you are forcing me to start looking into taking extreme measures!
  18. $1600 firm bump. If I'm going to have to sell this I want it gone quick.
  19. 3 or 4 years I have owned them. I am second owner. I don't recall The hours exactly. If I had to guess one has 2 hundred something and the other 3 something. I am going to try to put the batteries back in them this week so I can look for sure. As far as compression I really don't know for sure, when I was deployed last year I had a sea doo dealership check them over so they were good to go when I returned. Everything was great at that time.
