I love them all. Even the Chev and *****'s. But yer Dad's shoe box on the end
really does it for me. I hate to admit it here but I prolly drove over a dozen of then into the ground. It took awhile as they are tough and easy to work on.

Fun food friends and FORDS !! We had a great time meeting all of you in person. Your trucks and doc's pops Deluxe are amazing tributes to the time and dedication you all have to restoring these machines. Just want to say a big THANK YOU to Doc and Miss Amy. Your home is beautiful and welcoming, your family exceptional. We really enjoyed talking with your mom and dad at lunch. If any FTE member has the chance go to TS14 and sit and listen to mr & mrs Mc's stories they are amazing Thanks again. Bobbi and Dave

The wife and I just got home 5:15 great ride no problems. Didn't even need the new belt. Wife is very glad she went . told me she had a much better time than she thought she would. Even talking about the next one. As both truckfest and the two truckstocks, have turned out better then any car show I have ever been to , can't wait until the next one.

I just rolled in with Missy Green running strong. Joe, Harleymsn, and I split at routes 25 and 63. Edith was running pretty good even with the weak cylinder. Just talked with Joe and he is home safe, too.
Missy Green and I had a great time.
Thank you so much, Shane and Amy.

OK folks, Edith got Patti and I both safely HOME! For the old girl running on 7 1/2 cylinders she did real well. I want to thank Shane and Amy for allowing us all to enjoy a GREAT weekend. Special thanks of course to Ross, Garry and Shane for the work on the truck and also to Ray for following me halfway home to make sure everything was OK!!!

Been home about an hour. Man what a great time we had! For Sharon and I this is the most enjoyable event we go to. Truckstock is so much more than trucks for us, its a meeting of great friend who are there for no other reason than to enjoy each others company. Thank you Doc and Amy for ALL you two do to make us feel welcome.

I left around 1:00, made it to western KY, I wish I could say I was home already! I'll echo all the praise and thanks for Doc and Amy, and their local friends! This year didn't seem quite as "simplified" as imagined, we need to figure out a surefire way to unload Amy from cooking!

PERFECT weather, too!

What a great time we had at truckstock! It was really a blast getting to hangout with you guys, what a great group. All of the trucks were SWEET plus I was able to drive "Homade" and let me tell you it makes me want to get my truck done so bad! I can't wait till next years TS14 as my goal is to have my ole 51 there. What a beautiful place Shane and Amy have. Weather was perfect and the atmosphere couldn't have been better. Thank you Shane and Amy!

All of you guys are most certainly welcome! I want to thank all of you again for a spectacular weekend. And I want to thank Amy as well. She makes the wheels roll on this thing! I also want to thank Ross and Garry for all the help around the place. Also a big thank you to Cindy, Patti, Pat, Sharon, and Jennifer for all your help as well.

I appreciate everybody checking in as they get back home. Chris, Bob, and Michelle are still on the road, but doing well. Here's hoping for safe travels for the guys on the road and the ones leaving early in the am.

It's a great honor that you guys chose once again to come here. It's a GREAT group to be associated with. I'm very TIRED.

Ross (Albuq F-1) most definitely needs another round of applause. He brought his truck all the way from New Mexico, helped me out this past week, and worked hard on a bunch of trucks (including mine). Safe travels to you Ross. We'll be watching closely until you're back home.

I have some REALLY good friends here. Garry literally sat on a lawnmower for me all day long Thursday.

Hey Doc, thanks for hosting this again. Looks like a nice turn out, and it sounds like everybody had a good time. I'd sure like to see more pictures.

Hey Frank,
Thanks for posting pics - all the trucks look great!
I look forward to seeing your truck there next year! If Ross can get there from New Mexico - no excuse for us Texans not to give it a shot.
