I am hoping that I can make it next year. right now it is looking less and less likely I can make it this year. yeah it does make me happy but I am not happy about it's unfinished state. Time and money will fix that....

Thanks for taking us to a car/truck show. Great pictures.

 

Ford Truck and Car ****. It's the best. Thanks

 

Donald, great talking with you at the show! Man there was some nice trucks there!
Looking forward to the show in June to see everyone.

 

Excellent pics! Gives me some incentive to get going on mine....

 

It was good to see you again Donald. You got some shots of stuff I didn't see. It was hard to get around to see everything. Thanks for the pics, I hope my old truck didn't hurt your camera.

 

Thanks for posting. Nice!!!

 

Id be embarassed to park in the parking lot. Ha Ha ' Its nice to see what can be done with talent imagination, and money. Thanks for posting the pics.

 

Donald, nice pictures! Thanks for posting.

 

Yes I did Donald. That red 56 is Steve Misner's. He and his wife are both awesome people, they were great customers. He says he drives the tires off that truck. He had some chassis work done prior to bringing it to us but we took it from there and helped them finish it. I always thought the Mercury badging and tailgate were a nice touch.
This is the first time I've seen it with the front air bags. It looks GREAT!! You just can't beat an effie bumper laying on the ground.

 

Nice pictures thanks! I was thinkin about coming to this show ,but weather and work held me back.Went to a Goodguys show in Des Moines , Iowa last July 4th and it was one of best shows I've ever been to. They're havin one in Kansas City Kansas the first week of September might make it to that one.

 

Donald,
Thanks for posting. See you in June.

Mike yeah Steve and his wife are super people. You all's work on the truck is super. Bob is good with the gun.

Pickemup I hear KC Goodguys is good as well. Always Decent truck turnout

 

Thanx for the nice words Donald & Mike. We had a great time driving out to Nashville with some great car people. Our truck recieved the 'long distance' award (over 2,000 mi.) and the 'Cool Comercial' pick. It was also a nice reward to meet - in person - a couple of fellow FTE members and know that Donald was there when we were in distress.
By the way, Mike, I really liked the way the airbags rode as it was just finished before we left. I like a soft ride and with 'no shocks' the 4 ply bags were great. Yep, no shock absorbers. A chassis guy in our locale suggested that if I used the 4 plys rather than the standard 2 ply bags that it would give a nice ride without the shocks. I was somewhat doubtful of this but thought I'd give it a try. It probably has an extra 1/2 of a bounce on severe road dip at speed but was easy to get used to.
Steve

 

Steve again glad to know you all got back home. It was super cool to meet me and your wife. The truck is a beaut mine. I could have drooled over it all day. Glad you picked up some awards. One of these days I will fly out there to see you, Mike, Ed Oe's and all the other good West Coast F100 guys, one day.... So the bagged version rides better than the coil springs? Good to know. John, who is pictured by my truck, told me bags could ride as good on a OEM type suspension. You have 5K of road experience to validate that. So cool. Thanks again Donald
