Then and Now / Kickstarter Update

Just fidddlin' with some pics this morning and decided to do a "Then and Now" post. Top is brother Pete with the truck in 1981, bottom is as it sits in our driveway today...



Eventually she'll be sportin' the original Forester Green that many of these trucks came with from the factory. For now we just want to get down the road, which WILL happen come Spring 2015, the first day of which is only 125 days away! It's just a matter of finishing up the brake system, throwing in a new battery, then registration and insurance and we'll be rolling.

KICKSTARTER UPDATE:
16 days and $34,530 to go. It's a long shot, but that's pretty much par for the course on Kickstarter, which has a 44% success rate across the board. Still, I believe anything can happen (you know, like potato salad guy) and we'll take this thing right to the last hour. I'd really appreciate it if you would check out our Kickstarter link, contribute if you think it's worthy and/or share with friends. Anyone with any questions on the project can contact me directly anytime from that page. Thanks again!
