Quick Brick passed away

Hey all,

A good twenty years ago when the 99-04 lightning was new on the scene my father who went by the handle QuickBrick was a fairly active member on the forum and had a somewhat large presence in the northeast Atlanta show scene.

He recently passed away in November of 2020 and I'm his eldest son and inherited his truck.

I thought I'd share with anyone who may still be here from way back when.

Ahh, yes, I remember this truck. Neat looking rig.

I hope you are taking good care of it.

I still got my dad's custom ordered 2000 Dodge Dakota with the 4.7l V8, 3.92 LS in a 9.25" axle, and the NV3500 built right in my hometown of Syracuse, NY. I take very good care of it.

She's in rough shape. He went through several medical events that left him unable to tend to her as he would have liked. I'm working on bringing her back on the road. Mechanically she is sound which is a blessing in itself but visually I have a long road ahead of me.
