77&79F250,
I like your setup a lot. My shop is 40X60 with a 12' overhead door on it. It's really too small and I want to extend the front out another 20 feet and get one of those two car carports, too. Hope to get that done in the next couple of years. I doubt we will get the frame off restoration going seriously for another year. In the meantime I have a beautiful 1979 F-350 SC that I need to get some pictures posted.

I've got a new MIG welder coming in sometime this week and that will be a godsend for some of the small jobs we have to do.

I am far from wealthy, but try to pay real close attention to what's out there and the price is right. Plus, my farm is paid for and the boys are grown. Now I can get toys. :-)

You make me sick! My wife would never let me have that many toys!

I get the feelin' I'm not. I'm trying to upload pics right now. They're telling me I need to resize them because they're too large. I'm working on it.

I can't wait to be able to get mine out and play. Kansas weather can sure suck sometimes.

Always great to hear from another brother in Law Enforcement. I'm a small town Police Chief in Western Kansas. I-70 rolls through our jurisdiction, so we stay quite busy. I frequent Florida quite often. My wife used to work for Disney World. We go back down there once or twice a year. Please show some pics of your ride. That sounds cool!

I really hoped you would say that. Do you think $6,000 was reasonable?

I had to stare at that thing for most of my childhood. I remember having dreams that it was mine, even before I had a license to drive. I swore I'd never stop bothering him to sell it, and I'd never pass up the opportunity to buy it. It's finally mine and I couldn't be happier. Now... I just have to find some cash to keep it hydrated. LOL!
