Definitly want to see some pics
“That journey to Rouen was a terrible embarrassment to Jesse and me, for on the long straights across France, that great bulbous Oldsmobile coupe with the trailer and racing car on the back sat behind us no matter what we did. We both rowed our little Porsches along as hard as we could, and the Miller entourage just sat there in our mirrors. When we stopped, Ak removed his cigar and asked, ‘Your little cars okay?’”

This would have been a good truck for some of you to look at. It shows what you can do you you are not scared to cut one up. Roof from another truck was used and the roof was cut at the post. The rear was another truck and the doors was off a couple other trucks. I've done some crazy stuff and this one shocked me. The workmanship was A-1 and this is going to be a nice truck when it's done. With a sticker of over 38K when new this is going to make Dennis's son a very nice truck at a fraction of the cost of a new one.
If you don't like my dinged and dented hot rod sitting next to yours, put yours back on it's trailer and leave!

Junkyard Jeff, Madonna and I stopped over to look at that truck Sunday afternoon. It sure looks big in that garage all spread out with new bright red paint. I thought when you cut the roof off of something you were supposed to chop the top, but Big Dog said this one was all ready hammered pretty good so he was putting it back original. (LOL) Hard to believe how many trucks he's using parts from but it sure looks like it's going to all fall in place real good. The ol Big Dog has got a few toys laying around and his play house is well decorated and looked to be well organized. He had old Fords and Mustangs everywhere. He's got a sweet running old blue Ford and a pile of parts to really make it slick! Had a lot of fun there looking at all the toys and playing with the Gaurd Dog ( I think Madonna carried that pup around the whole time we were there).

I was wanting to stop back out but I wasn't feeling too good yesterday. Dennis does have some cool toys and the garage is done up pretty neat with old signs and such.
