The truck I am building wasn't even thought about 10 weeks ago for the last 7 weeks we have been working on it after hour and weekends but it should be finished Friday morning.
I am looking forward to tufftruck but it will be a shame to put this new rig through the mud. Crying or Very sad

I have about 2 hours of work to go and off to bed for my three hours sleep can,t wait. The 7 week rebuild on the zook is just about finished we will be leaving at about 10am tomorrow to deliver the car as the owner has not even seen his car finished or driver it.
The car has only been driven for about 10 minutes so fingers crossed.
Hope all the other guys get there cars finished in time there is still 12 hours till scruternering finishes.
