    Looks nice, Ron. Now just put some "NASA" decals on the rear tire hump & C-Pillars and you'll be set. Maybe get a Vanity Plate with "NASA" or "AREA-51" to finish the theme. Enjoy & Welcome Back!!!

    Ron, very, very cool!!! I think you are over in the Bay Area, no? We'll have to meet up sometime.

    I can't wait for Justin (Zeus) to make a thread like this. I know it will happen, someday....

    Thank you everyone!!! It's good to be back home, again! Missed the community (you don't know how much!) as well as the VX itself!

    When I talked with Anthony, he had tested the blower during his routine inspection. We figured that the rodent must've got into the truck during the 3-day transport while the driver was parked somewhere between here and Colorado. I was just glad that no dead or live pissed off rodent was with the stash!

    Regarding mods, I'm working on a few new ones as we speak. I'm trying to finish at least two new prototypes by June 4th as I'm planning to attend a local car show. But long term, I've got a few ideas that I'm itchin' to build.

    I forgot how much fun it was of owning and driving the truck was. My wife, Cindy, myself and the girls were driving through town yesterday and we couldn't believe how much attention this truck still gets after 10 years.

    nfpgasmask...I'll post another thread after the June 4th car show to see if anyone in the area wants to have a get together. Been a long time, it seems, to get together w/ fellow Vxers. So, I'm looking forward to meeting new and old faces again!

    Anyways, the truck is at the shop getting the 100k timing belt/water pump replaced as I type. Cant' wait to pick her up afterwards to drive another 100k! Woo Hoo!!!!

    June 4th car show??? What June 4th car show???

    Yeah, an area meet up would be cool. For some reason, San Francisco seems to be a hole in the online VX community. I know there are VXers there, I've seen em!! It would be cool to do an Isuzu event in general.

    hi Bart...

    Here's the link for the car show that I'll be attending. If you can make it then, it would be great!

    I'm also scheduled to attend a show on Sat., July 9th and another on Sunday, the 10th.

    Yeah, I'll be posting a thread after this upcoming show for local Vxers if they want to get together some time this summer. rudy (ron)
