Outstanding work! You know, if I hadn't been able to purchase the xm757 8x8, that little goat would have been sitting in my backyard, that's the deal Chris and I had. Of course, it would have taken a year or more to to what you did in a couple of months. Congrats!

No kidding Bjorn. It definitely got quicker service than we could have provided ;) Can't wait to see her up close John.

If it gets real hot outside at Aberdeen, can we use your bilge pump to cool off? It would be like a redneck version of city-kids around a fire hydrant :lol:

4 months, way to get it done! Must not have wasted too much time while working on it. I did my 715 in 4 month. I just love the look on peoples faces when they ask you how many years had you been working on it and you drop the 4 month bomb. For all you guys who spend years doing a resto job, here's you clue: Move to Michigan for the winter, find a nice warm garage, and work on your truck. It's not like there are too many other normal activities you can do in the winter here. Unless you are a snowmobiler (then you're praying for the white stuff instead of cursing it).
