Rocket Man's 2008 Bagged CC Silverado Build AKA "THE MACHINE"

Rocket Man said:

I finally got a call from Progressive last week and they determined he was 100% at fault even though he claimed we both backed into each other. My pictures and the damage on my truck combined with no damage to his bumper sealed it. I dropped the truck at my friend Jim’s body shop yesterday. He will spray the entire bed for me and remove the tiny dents around the wheel well where I rolled the fender and messed it up. So it will work out good for me to get the dents around both wheel wells dealt with at no cost to me. I’m dealing with some health issues right now but hope to be on the mend soon. Kinda miss the guys on the forum.

We miss you too, man, but it's some relief that you're updating this thread. Feel better soon!

Awesome job Mark. Pretty amazing work. Here's hoping all works out with your health. Get better soon.

House looks great Red, sorry about the truck, people suck… or maybe its just me thats sucks… who knows. I hope you’re feeling better soon brotha.

God bless Mark and doggie.

Hugs, daps, and high fives from over here man. Hope all is well!

I’ll be fighting for the next foreseeable future guys, it’s going to be a long haul they tell me. So forgive me if I’m not here much for the time being, I’ll be back more soon. I just need to change focus for awhile. The truck is being taken care of, I stopped by the other day. He’s my friend so he’s taking his time. Plus I am having him repaint the whole bed.

It’s give IT hell, Tony! It’;s the big “C” but I’m winning. The fight has just started, keep me in your thoughts and prayers guys and gals. I don’t want to go into detail here but I’m not afraid or worried to say I’m fighting a pretty mean form of cancer. It scared the crap out of the doctors and so me too. I feel we caught it early and I am currently doing and feeling great both physically and mentally. Chemo has little to no side effect on me 2 weeks in and the first week is supposed to be the hardest. I’ve had one operation and hopefully that’s the last but there is no guarantee on anything. I figured I owed it to you guys an explanation as to why I haven’t come back like I said I would after my home improvement projects. This has kept me busy and all my focus is on beating this cfrap. I am putting all my effort into what I can do- exercise, eat better, be positive, go to my appointments. The truck is still at the body shop. My friend is fixing everything on the body and paint. Take care guys, I’ll be back here soon enough.
