Yes he did buy it from Jonathan. I also purchased some stuff from him and a guy from SoCal delivered it up to the swap meet. I can’t remember his name at the moment.
Happy for you!

Man I miss my little red truck....... If you ever get the urge to sell it, you know 
The wife and I drove up to Craigs house and bought the top, really nice guy, had a badass 45!!!

Tony,
Craig sold the 1 ton 45 to a buddy of mine, he is thinking about selling it! He has since done an ls 6.0 swap, atlas t case, major exo cage, etc.. I was toying with the idea of buying it!

Need pics to see if you need discouraging or egged on
Egged on.. Renew the Green 45 memories. Besides aren't your kids getting close to driving age?
That is why I’m starting to scratch the itch, my boy is 13 next month and wants to wheel. I have been without a Rock crawler for 7 years!
I've seen it. Its legit!

Craig had built a sweet ride, I was shocked he sold it!!
Let the Hunt Begin. Of course I'm already looking for a beater for @rockcod . Oh and @whitey45 answer your phone once in a while LOL
I had intended to do a better job of updating the 45s journey with me but it’s seems free time is hard for me to come by these days.
I guess for now I’ll throw out some teaser pics... you guys know me I couldn’t leave well enough alone.

Jumping back to before my build started for posterity sake this is how she looked in January of this year.
Also I have to brag a little because there was a brief moment in time I was lucky enough to own two SWB RT 45s 
After doing pretty much bone stock restorations on my last two 45s I was ready to do something a little different. With Tony having already converted the truck to a 2F/ splitcase and disc brakes it seemed like the perfect candidate for a full on Resto Mod build. So this old girl is getting PS, A/C, Fuel Injection, custom interior, custom wheels, BT stereo with sub, heated seats, etc. It should be a blast to drive when done!
Per usual I had the old girl blasted to bare metal and unsurprisingly her life in CA treated her very well. The bed like all SWBs had some rust but prior to my ownership Hendog had that taken care of so I got to enjoy another rust free CA body which always make life better.

Dont know where you find the time and energy! Oh, forgot, your still a youngster!! Another fun well thought out build, getting the popcorn ready
I noticed the power steering pump but couldn’t make out a steering box anywhere. What are the power steering plans?
Looks amazing.
