Good stuff, Rich! Travel safe!

What's our plans for truck stuff this trip? ....or are we gonna wait until after the new year?

 

Good morning all! Yesturday sucked , but today I plan on getting parts and heading to Sparta, ill call ya Alan before I make the journey down. Thanks for the carb #s ill take that to Oriellys and get that in thr A.M.

Rich, very cool you will be home soon! I know that Ol Big Red will thank you! But as Alan and I were talkin, all the parts I need from you...i already had on a parts truck I got rid of! Urrggggg!

 

I have to get some work done on the front end of the Dodge, go figure. And then I would like to take the Bronco to SMORR.

But in the meantime I have to take down and relocate a car port for a FTE buddy, lol.

Also have a lot of pieces and parts to gather up to bring to the G2G, and put the 33's on ol silver for the trip.

Big plans are for after the first of the year and I hope to be home for a while, of course when its cold out, I can't be home in the fall of course.

Jeff thats why you NEVER get rid of any parts trucks....lesson learned the hard way. lol I should have all the parts you need off the rearended bronco.

 

Rich, yes you are right about not getting rid of parts trucks,But....i have only 2 acres and it would be an eye sore for neighbors.....or I would have ....many lol

 

Yeah, with all the '67 Impala's I had, I should've been able to build a couple of them, but I don't have a single one here. We all don't have the room you do, Rich. Believe me, if I did, I would have a pretty dang nice collection of classic muscle and Ford trucks.

Let me know when you start breaking down the carport. I'll give you hand. I'll have the I beam ready to load up too.

 

Ok you all do know that if you ever need the space to hide/park a truck or car let me know.

I recon if you and or Jeff come up for parts, we can get that thing down in a hr or less.

I have to move ol red and #88, but they should fire up with a little coaxing.

 

That's a great idea. If Jeff is up to it, we'll go up there for the parts and stay to break down the carport. We should be able to get #88 fired up while we're there. Kill a few birds with one stone.

 

Well, it's thundering and lightning here with some rain. If this keeps up, my progress is gonna get slowed down a bit today.

 

Im good for it, just let me know the day planned so I can see if im off. Night shifts suck, but I might go anyway and force sleep later. Lol, I need the parts! Lol

 

Just had to take my son down to the bus stop, raining here pretty good.

What tow truck you looking at Alan? I saw this on cl
parting out a 1973 ford f350

 

no rain here yet..but it is clouding up... yea i would not want to bother my neighbors with ugly old trucks sitting in the yard either.. i am very considerate that way..ha ha ha ha

 

Jeff, not that one. I saw that too. Larry is a member on here and is lurking around as we speak. I bought a parts truck off him over the summer and spied a '79 Wrecker sitting in the trees and asked about it. It looked like it was in good shape and of course, ...I instantly fell in love. I'm still trying to figure out a way to get the Cord, too, but that may take longer.

RC, I know you like your place to be tidy and clean. You can tell by all the landscaping you've done over the years.

 

I'm assuming it goes out when it rains just like satelite TV.

 

Good morning boys and girls.

All is well up here in KC. Today is going to be my long day. Job A called me this morning and said not to come in until 10:30, so at least I got to have breakfast with the wifey today.

 

yes alan i worked hard getting the landscaping done here.. it takes time to find all these yard ornaments and get them placed just right..
