If you received tickets in the mail you got them from Josh, the Ga. Cruiser's VP! Thanks Josh for doing the hard stuff!
Did everyone see us in Toyota Trails and especially the nice write-up Jeff Zepp did. Thanks Jeff!

Glad to help. A dent free door should help keep costs down at the body shop and yeild a bondo-free truck which is the quality we all want when we win the truck.

I picked up the rear springs yesterday at the UC annual meeting. These are heavy OME Dakar springs that have never been installed! Also, picked up Ubolts for front and rear suspension, both donated by UC members (John and Jay, respectively).
Thanks guys!
Also, I updated the list in post #2

BTW I got the parts from Phil "BamaBleach". Any updates on a wrenching Day?
I won't be at the meeting next week I'll be packing for the "Cruiser Crawl" in Arkansas. I'll bring the parts to our wrenching session which better be sooner than later .

Yep, Dates are looking like Oct 24, 31, and Nov. 8 in Norcross. There will probably be a few more thrown in for good measure toward Thanksgiving on "as needed" basis.
The truck should be done at the body shop hopefully in time for the Annual (crossing fingers here) and we hope to have on-site. Then it's time to get this thing done!!!!

I would just assume put money on your truck Sidney. As long as your Longs show up and you let me drive.

Ted,
How is the parts situation looking? (still have a shortage list?) Also the pictures from the body shop still show the dented door. Is that presenting any problems to change your plans?
Thanks

I believe they repaired the original door rather than replacing because of the electric windows and locks...

Ok. Sounds counter intuitive with such a large dent which would require a lot metal work followed by bondo (or completely reskinning the door) to get to the final result that would be on par with the rest of the truck. However, the experts are in the body shop ...
