Borkster how bout some pics for the uninitiated. I know what these trucks look like, heck your red truck was probably the inspiration for at least the first 500 guys that joined this club on the old site(s).
It's a race.. Will hell freeze over or will JC finish his truck first. Stay tuned..

I have been telling Bork for years that there is a "61-66 Truck of the Year" trophy waiting for him in Knoxville at the F100 Supernationals. Both trucks would sure look better in some of the magazines than the Brand X stuff featured. Imagine how many people would be inspired to buy or build a Slick after seeing these two. That folks is how you generate interest in Slicks, by showing them what is possible.
Thanks again Bork for raising the bar.
