Good morning all. Alan, have fun with that. If I were closer, I'd be all about the A/C stuff for my buddy I got Ms Dent's new cab from.

Y'all be safe!

Just heard from our insurance company, and my baby is not totaled. Almost 10k in damages, and he said hat 13k would have totaled it. But I also don't think that the guy I've been talking to in the office know exactly what he's talking about.
The appraiser said that it "should" get picked up tomorrow and go to the body shop that I've picked out.
Time to pop a top

Unk Bob

The storms blew through Glasgow and Fayette, rocked the truck back and forth and put the power out in those two towns and Salisbury. It was kind of neat to watch from a customer's shop, til the power went out.

Yeah me too. I just found out that he's only done the cosmetics. He can't tell me why the entire truck leans to the right real hard. So it is, going to get worse yet.

We weathered the storm ok, my pet duck Randy was almost drown when his "wing floaties" popped from to much barometric pressure changes when he was tubing the rapids after the rain. Good thing he is a duck. lol

Unk Bob I hope you get what you want out of it. I would want it totaled and just get a newer truck. You should CASH out on top since that truck was in awesome shape with low miles.

The Hillbilly Bug. 73 Bronco chassis, 85 Mustang 302 with a cam and way to to light to have so much power!

Your storm made it to the east side of the state. Blew a lot of limbs outta trees and blew a few trees over too. But all is good

I will never complain about a little wind and rain as long as THIS does not happen again. I was 5,461 miles (which ='s a LONG plane ride) away from home when it happened.

And I was in Kiev Ukraine working, that was a stressful trip home to say the least. It stayed that way till I got home too.

I am grateful it did not come back down on the blue trucks bed...or karate chop the silver cab.

Yep, barely a drop of rain.

RC helped move big, heavy things around in the shop, today. The help was very much appreciated. Thanks again!

Here's how High Roller looked today. (before we tore it all apart again)
