Good morning Bama!
Well we missed the major part of the storms last night, so all is well.
Thursday is here and long weekend for some of us!
Have a great day and safe holiday weekend.

Morning guys....Steve, hope I'll us good in your neck if the woods, sun is out in all its glory here today. Finished up regular children's activities last night, the kids all had a blast spending their Awana dollars at the store last night. Not much going on here today, other than putting a new fuel pump on the truck...then maybe a quick beach trip tomorrow as a surprise to the wife...

Morning Caleb. A little chilly here this morning, 46 when I left the house. Did you get any of the storms down there last night?

Good morning Steve , Scott, Pat, Tim and Caleb. I think we missed the bad stuff again. I guess it went North of me again. It was pretty windy on the drive home last night. Just got a little rain at the house. Right now it is cloudy with a lot of thunder with a little rain.

Hey Guys, Hope everyone is having a good afternoon. I wanted to get some advise...I have a '74 F100 Cab sitting on the frame (Does NOT have a bed) Cab is in excellent shape, no rust that I have seen, FULL set of trim all the way around, and in excellent shape. It has a sliding rear window, and chrome trim around the front window. The front window will need to be replaced. The interior is gutted completely. The hood has rust on the front edge, and would need to be replaced. It actually has a 351C that has a 2bbl on it, and runs good. It has an AOD transmission (supposed to work, haven't attempted to drive it around because it doesn't have brakes on it. My plans originally were to put a flatbed on it and use it to run around town in, and goof off in, BUT, I have found another project that has peeked my interest. I wanted to see if any of you guys would have need of either the frame, or the cab. As of right now, I am thinking of keeping the engine and transmission to rebuild as time permits, for use in a future project...I was going to check with you guys first before I posted it elsewhere...

Howdy all!

First, Caleb, PM sent

Today's big project was painting the wooden door that leads into my living room. Had to precisely mask off the 15 panel windows, what a pain! Of course, Gator, my wife stays out of the way so I have more creative control with my painting!
