Finnegan And Newbern Are Road Tripping The C10! Well, After They Thrash On It For 5 Days Straight With Cotten And Two Other Dudes


Finnegan And Newbern Are Road Tripping The C10! Well, After They Thrash On It For 5 Days Straight With Cotten And Two Other Dudes

Mike Finnegan is an entertaining cat, and a dude that is super fun to be around. He’s also pretty talented, although he’d deny that. Like me, he’s always down for a thrash and wants to do fun stuff whenever possible. Since his venerable C10 has been sitting around collecting dust, with just minor progress on the build happening over the past year, he and Newbern decided to kick it into high gear a couple weeks ago. And they were doing well, until they realized they needed to do more than they thought, and then decided they needed an even bigger kick in the ass to make this thing be a functional truck.

Enter the self imposed random deadline. It’s motivational power is second only to a race deadline, and can really make you step up your game and get your stuff done. Lucky for Finnegan he’s got friends who also believe in the art of the thrash and so he can convince them to help with nothing more than the promise of laughs, pizza, and beer. But maybe not in that order.

And so the thrash is on! In just 5 day Finnegan and the gang will make the C10 a running and driving and functioning truck, before road tripping it to the guys at MRC Fabrications to see what kind of awesome progress is being made on the Caddy project. Before the C10 gets good, it gets worse, like most projects, but you take every small victory as a win and roll with it.

Will they make it? Of course!…Uh, sure!?….Maybe?

We have faith.

Here is the first day of 5. Enjoy.
