Well It Has Been Along Time Coming And I Cannot say How Happy I Am To Start This Thread! Most of you already know my set-up so theres no sence in beating around the bush. Heres my truck and the story behind the beast she is today.


i brought her home on Oct 5th soon after i bought a roe throttle body 2 months later i sucked a screw down the intake and blew the number 10 piston to pieces.... i took her to dallas dodge and they acted like i had never been to the place even though thats where i bought the truck at.. all of my paper work had come up missing even the papers that were in the glove box when i droped it off with me signing the papers when i bought the truck...gone.. well i took the truck to temple dodge and had them take the motor out and we waited for the next move while the truck was at temple dodge i found out awhole bunch of things about my truck it has had 3 new motors put in it 2 new rearends...and the carfax was clear when i bought the truck.... or the sheet they gave me was clear..... soon after finding this out my motor went to david and the guys at ART in austin tx were we had come up with a plan to do just your normal rebuild... well over the time i started asking david to do more and more until there pretty much not that much i can do to the truck. while the truck sat an temple dodge it got broken into the broke out the entire back window and my Cold Air intake got stolen. 3 days later they riped the wing off of it. with a pry bar and messed up the bedsides..anyway it's been a little over a year and shes finally back running! and heres the pictures of everything i did and found during the build...hope it wasn't to boring. it has been a struggle to stay into a hobbie when people keep beating your shit up

Truck looks good. I glad your back on the road with it. You sure went through alot of hell with it. I hope its everything you expect it to be now. Did the dealership ever get you a new wing after yours was stolen?
