I'm still here from time to time. Not much going on with the 53 over the last year. I got a new position at work and have worked almost every weekend for the last year. Can not wait for retirement so I can finally finish this truck and start to drive it!

Still around now and then... quite alive but never been much of a kicker.

OldHorse is sleeping in the garage; he doesn't get out much but does just fine when he does.

i geuss i can fit into this category seeing as i dissapear for very long periods of time .................... i am still alive and kicking , no time for the 53 as work just keeps getting crazier and crazier , and the lack of free money.................... my home 'putor has crashed yet again and been using a loaner laptop from my unk who's fixing it again so i just don't get on for a wide variety of reasons . i try to remember all my co-enablers and fellow addicts on a daily basis , but i am so brain tired that i really am the living definition of turning blonde !!!!!!! i will try to get on here a little more often though , but no guarantees .

I'm still here from time to time!
I haven't worked on the truck much recently, but I did send it down for my brother to do some fab work on the flat bed. We worked a trade sometime ago and he is going to do some work on the old gal for me. I also recently found the rare PTO for my np202 transfercase, took four years of looking!
Glad to always have FTE to come back to!

I'm away, far more than in here anymore.
Been busy with our still-new-to-us-old house, and the kids' activities.
Robotics is full swing with my oldest right now. And now I'm also cleaning up under and around my seven 50ft trees' mess from the holiday's ice storm. Needed to prune them anyway...
Still have all my projects:
'56 F-100
'56 C-600 (to be C-800 Big Job Crew Cab)
'54 F-100
various '53-'55 parts bodies for crew donors.

So blessed!
Happy Holidays y'all!
JML

ps. y'all can pm me anytime, I get the email notification and am usually pretty quick to respond.

I still get on once in a while. A lot lately because of progress on my F-3. College seems to keep me busy and away from the hobby.

Happy Holidays to everyone!

Hi Abe, Yes, all is good. Been driving more this year in our old vehicles than ever before. Still going to build another 56, and my Dad and I are going to build it together. He is still sharp as a tack. Really makes me proud to hang out with him. drove to Florida and back in the earl truck.

We ought to get our green trucks together some day soon. Your truc looks great. Thanks for thinking of me.
