LOL, old, but not quite dead yet. I hauled stuff in them that I would be afraid to haul in a 1/2 ton truck. They both had 472's in them and I wish now I would have kept the running gear out of them.

I'm not like that. I'm going in knowing I am just a raw rookie so I am just going to practice and learn from the experienced ones that I am working with. And when I am not sure about something that I need to do I ASK before I do it so I dont mess it up.

64shortbed · 07-05-2009, 09:56 PM

thats the best way watch and learn and remember there is no such thing as a dumb question. my boss is good with that. before working with him i didnt set foot in a body shop for 12 years when i worked for the other guy. i had a lot to relearn. i just did the work in my garage as a hobbie.
