Jeff the stance on that truck looks good. I especially like your
brushed Ididit column. Your truck is coming together quick.
Keep the pics coming, we love 'em. TR

Clear coat on the column looks great, Jeff! Like that steering shaft setup better than other options we talked about. Nice job.

How's work!?!?!?
Did you ever get the rear suspension dialed in? What was your final decision?
Should have come to the Cedar Rapids swat meet this weekend. Scored something you could have used, Jeff.
Keep your eyes open, there are still deals out there. Got this one for $40 yesterday. Probably using this one on he '37, already have one on the FE in the unibody.

well guys , it's been awhile since I last updated, so here we go... got the oil filter thing worked out. it was cheating but it's a "rat rod". then i got fustrated with the shifter situation so i walked away from it for about a month and just did anything but work on Therapy. now i have the shifter in , the cable ran, the pressures set on the trans and it runs. not bad for not spending any money( well not much). now i just gotta get enuf hrs in to exhaust it and i can take out for a test beat , can't wait
ok now i'm caught up Later guys and gals Jeff

Ironic how you needed therapy from working on Therapy, isn't it?
Glad to see and hear that you're coming along. Getting close to driving it again. See how easy those suspension installs are? Change one ting and changes 50 other things downstream. Oh, the fun!
Looking good, Jeff.

Thanks Steve, yeah it causes alot of changes but I hope the purpose is realized, a better ride and more creature comforts. I like the "therapy from Therapy" spin.

Jeff, this is a bit late but wanted to say thanks for sending the front axle and springs down here with Steve.
I appreciate it sir. Your build is looking very good there. Hope I see you in Salina next August driving that.
I have been watching your build on your 64 especially since I have one just like it. Keep the pics coming. TR
