A friend at work and previous body shop owner for 25 years stopped by today (he's the guy who's gonna put my rockers on for me) to look at the M715 and he flipped, said it was the "coolest" truck he'd ever seen. We "just had to take a spin in it" He walked about stroking his chin -scary when guys do that, you just don't know what to expect...
When I returned with the beers I started taking about what needed to be done, and he interrupted me, and said "got ya covered" this skin... and that corner.... and this tab.... gimme $40.00 I'll pick up the steel we'll need on the way home today...
So it's off to Harbor Freight Sunday for a few miscellaneous tools, said he's stop by and go with me to be sure I'm gonna get the right tools. The best part about this is, he told me to forget the body, it's as good as fixed..it'll look like new when I'm done ..so as this progresses I'll shoot a few pictures...
