I would be interested in bringing my truck if some people attending can give me some good pointers for paint prep and paint. It would take a few hundred bucks to get it down there... and I do not want to hog the garage or put people to work all weekend.
Go back to my reply on your earlier post here and send me an email to the address I posted if you're serious. Where are you located in KY? Bring your truck as it is. But we need to talk to get you up to speed first.

Let me warn you right now. My neighbor has a jewel of a truck, and he's one of my best friends. Only "problem" is that it has the wrong brand name stamped on it. But I'm trying to talk him into bringing it up at least for a few minutes. It's gorgeous. All original restored farm truck. You'll want to see it. Those of you who are Ford-or-nothing can go get a hot dog or something.....

All you need is a couple of baby animals and she'll feel right at home. She's already worrying who's going to take care of her "babies" while we're gone. Doc, I'm telling you, you need a couple of buckets of manure for her to soak her feet in.
I think I can smell some BS in this post

Hey, it's almost has a Monkey Face so I guess I can tolerate it.

Just tell him we'll help him by giving him a few extra goodies from Classic Haulers so he can replace some them Chevy parts with Ford.

Personally as long as it's got four wheels and is 30 years or older I like it. I just like it as much. Oh, no foreign junk.

Actually on a dairy farm there's little BS, a lot of C(cow)S and H(hiefer)S for sure.


OH, you mean that!! No, I would never BS anyone, really

Wow guys, sure wish I could make it to this event, but I just got engaged to a lovely lady and she doesn't have enough time off to make this and the show at Townsend. Doc, I sure hope this can turn into an annual event.
