Congrats on the award.

 

Thanks Buzz. Brute, I've always thought duallys looked hilarious with only single sets of tires on the rear. Them huge fenders with the small amount of tire under there made me laugh.

 

Yeah it does look really dumb like that. The guy I bought it from only had 4 wheels and I had to put them like that to get it on the trailer.

 

That makes sense. I see them on the train tracks when they have those rail wheels on them. They look goofy.

 

Here are my trucks

65 F250 4x4


81 F150 4x4 (this pic was taken right after putting the lift on it)

 

sad to say....

I got rid of "Brown Betty" (aka The BROWN STREEK) last month





traded her and an AR-15 for the "Commuter Car"
1994 F350 Crew Cab Dually
7.3 Turbo Diesel
with a 5 speed and 4.10's

 

Wow fantastic truck, almost the perfect package, all it's missing is 4WD. Good trade to I would say, assuming not a really nice AR.

 

I'm a little late timing-wise, but I took Buford to the 1st Annual Inland Northwest Truck Show about a week ago. It was an ok show, but I think the lousy weather made the turnout a little thin. Regardless, met some nice folks, and saw some nice rigs.

The '78 F250 next to me was a nice truck, and it had one of the coolest canopies I've ever seen. It's a 'pop-over' canopy by Wilder-Nest......they went out of business years ago, but I've never seen one of their canopies in person. I couldn't believe the roof of that canopy can take plenty of weight, but the owner hung off the edge and bounced like it was nothing. Really cool design, as it makes the roof the 'bedroom', and the bed of your truck a 'living room' that you can stand up in. Plus, the elevation makes it perfect to stay away from curious critters. The front bumper on his rig is actually from a '67 Peterbilt that he shrunk and welded up. I think it looks great on the truck.

Anyway, enjoy......

 

Looks nice srisher. Behemoth, those canopies are pretty slick, there is a moderator for the Bronco forum that has something similar on his bronco. It sits on the roof rack and pops up into a tent on top of the bronco. It has a small ladder and everything.

 

I wanted to take mine there but it conflicted with reve it up for the vets in Chewela. The 65 ran just fine up 395 for a hot summer day. It was a nice little show. Ill try and make the truck show next summer. Your truck looks good sitting there. Just curious were the 61-66 represented at all?

 

Mine is finally alive. Clicky the picture

 

Sounds pretty healthy man. Nice job.

 

Stinky is a plain ol' '00 Superduty with a diesel - not much to see there. However... he's got a lot of heart and an attitude.

 

Looks pretty good there. That also looks like a heck of a place to live. I'm over on the west side by Seattle so everything is within a few miles. It must be quite peaceful over there.

 

My 95 F-150 just bought it a week and a half ago lovin it so far. Bought as a drivable project/hauler/play off roader.
