Lou, that looks really nice! The fenders and grille sure give the old King Hauler a brand new look, and I like it. The grab handles on the hood are an awesome detail touch. Did you make those yourself? I could use a few of those myself, for a project. Keep it going. Looking forward to the finish!

Lou, you must have worked an all nighter, to get that far. Now remember don't get too many projects going at once or you'll end up like me, nothing done. A real nice start on a great truck. It will look real mean, pulling that trammel.

Looking great Lou! Hopefully I can join you guys in Campbell River so I can check out all of your new stuff. The mid island boys have been busy and I'm falling behind!
