I'm still around.......hanging out on the '87-'96 forum mostly. I need to check in here more often!

Working in Lincoln and doing some occasional regional traveling for my job. With the little free time (and money) I can manage to find, I've been working on a new engine build for my '93 Ford Festiva. I really miss the 48MPG!! I also need to cut back on the miles I'm putting on the F250 and do some much needed maintenance.

I'm here but not doing much work on the '46. Too damn cold in my garage for that. I'd really like to get it rewired and "buttoned up" so that I can run it over to the courthouse, but that's gonna have to wait until my fingers don't freeze to the steering wheel!

I'm alive, but somedays, not by much. Gave up potato farming and am now working for a plumbing company here in columbus on the utilities crew. Been slowly getting things fixed up on my old 81 but have a new project coming up soon that I can't wait for. I keep pretty busy with work in the winter, but that heated shop sure treats me good too. I like working in there this time of year rather than during the summer, almost...

I'm still around! Snow keeps missing my area so haven't been playing much. Just got some new parts for my '91 last week, Mico auxilary brake lock solenoid. Needing something to lock up front wheels when winching logs, loading trailer, etc. Planning on some pics during install, just as soon as I get my '94 F150 out of the garage.

Mostly been workin & sleeping & stuff. Trying to refrain from punching Nick in the neck at work, but that guy sure makes it tuff.

I still need to figure out what is causing my miss-tery miss in the 88, and get the fenders rust proofed now that its driven on our friendly acid roads before its too late.

I think I'm going to start a thread about the Miss-tery, because I am completely baffled.??

I'm still here too..... I just picked up a '78 F150 4x4 this morning. Very clean. Interior is in awesome shape. Seller claims the 71,000 on the odometer is correct and it's been garaged most of it's life. No fading on the paint or interior. Only rust is the rear wheel wells. It's still sporting the old factory plain white steel rims. I need new rims and tires. It needs exhaust as well and valve cover gaskets etc.... Nice clean truck. It's the Custom model in dark brown metallic. Very boring but it was too clean to pass up.

My '78 F250 Ranger 4x4 is going up for sale now.
