THANKS/PLANS
To Jeff Wootten, John Hopkins, and LB Brittingham for all your hard work on the truck. To ECM for backing me. To my wife, Lori, and my daughters, Paris & London, for always supporting me and believing in the project.
I'm not sure what is in store for this truck down the road. I would liketo make it a little more road friendly. I am however, getting started on a new project, the Little Shop Special, 4 door blazer. Most of my time and effort is going to spent on that over the next few years.
