Where are you from in WI

So where is everyone else from in Wisconsin? I am from Jefferson, which is about halfway between Madison and Milwaukee just a short skip off the interstate.

73-79's are my ford truck cup of tea, but then any FORD truck is good! Hope to hear from some of you others!

I know exactly where Burlington is. I sold a truck shortly after school and it ended up there--red and white. Somedays I wish I still had that ole' truck.

Cleveland Wisconsin. Just north of Sheboygan right off I-43.

I didn't know there was a WI chapter of FTE. Very cool!

mpcrewcab, did you happen to check out the Jefferson car show & swap meet? I was there Saturday for most of the day. I didn't walk through the car show part, but scored some goodies at the swap meet part.

Always sell at both Jeffersons--if you saw a swap spot with a blue and white bronco and a blue and silver truck both 73-79 that was our stalls. We had 6 stalls this year. Always next to the 48 foot red enclosed trailer. I live about a mile north of fairgrounds--so spent 3 full days there! Didnt show the truck this spring there as I bought my next project, a 1966 Mercury Comet Cyclone GT and was too busy getting that home on sunday. Plenty of other shows though. Didnt buy much else but sold a ton of stuff and lots of parts so a good weekend overall.

Mike

Hey Mike -

I know you - you're wife and mine are scrapbook maniacs! And I only live about 2 miles from you. What a small world.

Anyway, from Milwaukee originally. I live in the lovely and scenic Town of Milford, near Lake Mills.

Later,

Derek

Hey Derek-- are there any 67-72 parts you need. Let me know I have 1 truck here, not much great, but there might be something the kids truck needs or that we took off of it. I also may be taking another truck of that vintage in on trade in the next week. So let me know if you are looking for anything.

Mike

Can't stop on Saturday - gotta drive to Indy to pick up my new truck. Maybe Sunday if it works for you. I'll check with the warden.

Found out I need the left front fender, btw.

Congrats on the new truck--finally found what you wanted huh....so are you letting the "warden" drive it?? Not much good on it--they stripped it last nite and hauled into the scrapyard today. Body not well--Mike bought it for the motor primarily fpr the cyclone. Sunday we wont be home-- going to the All Ford show in Cudahy.

I see that most of you live in the south central and south east part of the state, quite a ways from me. I'm up in the north western part of the state.
