Bite your tongue, Ches. I'm enjoying not freezing my cookies off working outside.
Today I got Lee's truck buttoned up. I got the tow dolly wired and the new tires on it. I got the shop cleaned up from all the recent projects, and I got the tail gate made for a friend's trailer.
Tomorrow I can get the Dodge over here and start cutting on it.

I've seen pictures of that truck Lee - there's not too much that is worth messing with other than the rear axle and maybe the wheels. Cutting it up will be an improvement.

Is it a bad sign when the van holds more than the camper can sleep?
Lee, yeah, it's pretty bad. It's not 4wd either. The rear, wheels, doors, dash, seat and rear slider window are the only parts I can save. Everything else is scrap metal.
Good Morning Everybody!
Gonna start to get mid-evil on this Dodge. I even bought a bunch of new sawzall blades!

The good news is that I got a call about employment this morning...the bad news is that it was for a second shift position and I passed on the opportunity.
Oh well. Getting the phone call is a positive thing...right?

Morning gentlemen. Ches, while I'd love to see some snow just as much as you...when it effects my employment (crew vans quit moving when the roads get slick) I just as well it not show up. That 21" Carthage got last year about this time this time of year had things screwed up at work for a week.

What year of truck is that in your avitar? There is an auto repair shop down the street from where I work that has a same year panel wagon for sale. If I only had the money, time & space

btw.... I'm in the process of rebuilding a 1946 1/2 ton. The truck has a little history. My grandfather bought it in the 50's. He use to drive it several times a week to Kansas City. After a few years, it became a farm truck. My father would feed cows with it. (as well as cut donuts out in the field) He ran a stob through the radiator in 1964. It was parked until early 90's. In my high school years, my father and I were going to rebuild.... (never happened) Now it is at my house and we are in the process of rebuilding. I bought a donor 1973 maverick, and am putting the 302/c4 in the old pickup. We have the truck down the the frame and are getting ready to paint the frame in the near future. Also started sanding the body. Our target legal driving date is this fall.
