Now, I'm bent out of shape. Kid went and stomped on my idea to get rid of six or seven trash tires and rims, without having to pay for disposal. Kid it's really hard when you stomp on a mans dreams and hopes.

The way I heard it , Mike, is the Toyota hemi four banger engine, Chevy rearend, and Mopar drum brakes is the sweet setup. Period correct you know. :wink:

Just not sure who's period. But you could sell it on ebay if you gave away a free bag of cash with it.

Kind of like the way you get the dog to play with the goofy kid, by hanging a pork chop around the kid's neck :lol:
It's a race.. Will hell freeze over or will JC finish his truck first. Stay tuned..

Mine will not be a mega bucks or high tech truck but what the hey, I'm in! I see no reason for a "for fun build off" to change Slick Stock, but it might be a fun addition.

Who really cares? The same people that went to SS04 and SS06 will be there and have a blast. Some more may show for 08 but i doubt it, and if they dont i will see the core group of freinds once more.

thanks for the vote of confidence.still unhappy about missing this year, instead of a 2 week drive and a fun weekend i got to stay here for the 14 straight days of rain. see you in KC, ill be the one in the ruby red shoes. :shock:

true fact is i do like slick 60s because there is no pressure or comments on some trucks being better than others.there is really no better, only
different.
some of the differences are choice based, others are environmental.
an example:
Merle has a very nice truck, won trophys etc. i like the truck but because of my location and the roads, its not very useful to me.
on the same track, those in the city areas really dont need a low geared 4x4, not very useful to them.


i consider you all friends but i dont need any awards or special things either.everyone around here knows who belongs to the red and gray 66 and the green 66 stepside.we cant keep folks away from them.my wife wants a "not for sale" sign for hers, i told her when she drove mine to work today if someone asked tell them $7500 or go see the :twisted: devil. it has flaws but its mine, had it all in pieces at one time ,spent lots of hours in time, the enjoyment is driving it.

Lonnie, id go tackle some of that red mud in the 4x4 i heard of , dont care if my truck is covered in it because i dont have a spendy paint job.lets see who can climb the face of a cow in their 4x4. LOL

Lonnie he is using "Slickspeak" to say "lets go 4x4ing!"

Climb the face of a cow is a term an Ebay seller from Butte, Montana used to describe how well her slick 4x4 could climb. It was posted here a while ago, on the old board. We all had a good laugh. :rotflmao:

Lonnie, JC is right.
not sure you would want to get mud all over your nice looking truck,but it does not really bother me as mine is always outside anyway.

Iceman that sounds like fun to me. The mud will wash right off. however i built mine for sand on the Outer Banks for surf fishing. havent made it there yet. Havent had the time sence i got it where i could drive it. I did go to map blast to get directions from Williamston to Talkeena. Here are the results....4583.8 miles 76hrs. 22min. = @10 mpg=458 gal of gas @2.39 per gal = $1094, 3.17 days of driving time. plus motels, food. Then its the same thing to get back home. My wallet cant handel it and my ruby reds are broken. Alaska is one of the places that i have always wanted to visit ever sence i was a little kid. If i ever get a chance to get there i will be sure to give you a shout. If you come out this way give me a shout or any one else for that matter.
