The last re-build

Post by Uncle Skip »

I'm almost done. A few more mechanical things and some cosmetic shit and she's back on the road.
But the name Nadine does not fit the truck anymore, so I'm running a poll for a new one.
What do you think.
I have a personal Icon that will be incorporated in the pin striping on the tail gate. Its a comic caricature of one of the stone idols on Easter Island from my surfing days.
Should I re-name her:
Casper
Kahuna
(or Kahuna Casper.... LOL)
Thanks guys. Its all about having a good time.

Here's the icon I adopted from the Cartoon, Sherman's Lagoon.

Wish I could be at Slick Stock with you this year.
I'm not arguing with you. I'm just explaining why I'm right.
Pardon me. Does your deaug bite?

I think you should just name it 'Skip'.

I had always heard of the legendary "Kansas Surfer", but I didn't realize I'd met him!

I don't understand how Nadine doesn't fit anymore?
The style she is finished in matches the era of the song.
She's now just wearing a nice white wedding dress,
after all the years and work it's about time you 2 had a honeymoon.
