    "Bub" Johnsons' RIP rpu is a long time Portland area fixture, and even though I'm not much of a whitewall/hubcap kind of guy, this thing is near perfection in my eyes.

    Yes it is...I was on my way home from the Nor Cal Knockout in Vallejo a couple of years ago, and whipped in there since the gate was open. There are some really cool old warbirds there.

    That is really nice. Too many people don't know when a build is done. Well, they are never really done but after this point it's easier make things worse than to make things better.

  16. I would put the hood shelves on it so the hood gap at the bottom closes up, but other than that, it's a cool little RPU.

    I love these two little pick ups. They were at the VHRA event at Pendine Sands in Wales, UK. These photos are from 2016. They look good, sound mint, and go like f*ck. What more do you want?

    I thought that was your old truck, Dean, but it looks a little rougher than when you had it...

  28. The paint on the red one looks like crap, I don't think it will buff out.
