Just wondering who resides in south Texas as I am visiting family in Alamo, just east of McAllen and have lots of spare time, nothing to work on while I'm down here and no old ford truck to drive around, I'm having withdrawals,Garry

 

I'm not as far South as you currently are. I live in Port Lavaca, probably about 4 hrs or more from where you are. Half way between Corpus and Houston on the Coast.

 

man, this weather down is something else, seems to hot for this time of year but I guess if you all went to Kentucky now you would be freezing, temp around 45 at night.

 

Homade, I live in San Antonio and if you came down I-35 into town, you passed within about 5 blocks of my home. Wish I had known you were passing through. Let me know when you make the return trip and we can have a cup-O-joe when you get to San Antonio. If you are here on Friday, we have a cruise night at Biff's Burgers on the north side of San Antonio just off the access road to I-35 north. Hope you can make it.

IThe offer is the same for me. If you come back up HWY 59 through Victoria or up the coast let me know. If time allows I'll meet you somewhere with my truck and we can visit for a while.

Thanks guys,probably be going back north on the 15th or 16th but don't know if I'll take 59 or 37 and 35. It would be nice to meet you so have to wait and see, later Garry

 

Hey homade, I thought you werent goin to be on here during your trip?

While youre in TX, you (depending on where you are) might want to take a look at that spiral staircase, that was built in that old church. I'm directionally challenged and dont know where it is or where you are in relation to it, but from the pictures that I've seen, its very cool!!!

Be safe, I'm not goin to even ask you to behave

 

Think that is in Santa Fe NM Truxx.

 

Gary,
If you find any cool old desert trucks, take some pics.

Terry, I never thought that uncle had a computer and I could use it way down here just like I was home,HOW DO THEY DO THAT!
Brian, I've seen a couple but did't have camera handy but have you looked on the swap meet section today, nice chop top on there for 2500.oo, check it out.

 

Man I wish, here we`re almost down to freezing with rain and winter isn`t too far away.
I`ve been to Weslaco afew times in the early 90`s and Yuma in 2000.

 

We went through Weslaco today on our way across the border at Progreso so the ladies could do some shopping. Going down to Monterrey Friday and come back Monday, should be an interesting trip, I've driven over 5 million miles in the US but never driven in another country, should be fun, later Garry

 

Hey homade,
You make it back north of the boarder yet? How was the old iron down there? Hope your having a good time.
