Josh, thanks again for taking charge of getting my computer back on all fours
I'm still trying to get my Christmas program downloaded and "Key" installed so I can get working on this next years show.
Hope everybody had a nice weekend.

Mondays mondays mondays, well on this particular monday I actually received my first Econoline and am looking for some help where to post my questions and figured you guys could help me out. I want to turn it into a weekend warrior and truly use the conversion end to explore the great outdoors and get out of the city and state for a little while. Where should I go for general questions on my van as well as more specific question geared towards making it a camping van. Thank you and happy new year everyone!

Right here is fine, and welcome aboard Dasmo!
We also have an official North Carolina FTE "Works" thread to show things we're working on, and could even use a hand with. Dosen't have to be truck related either.
And we also have a link for our monthly dinner get together. Usually a different BBQ joint.
So post away!

Add 5 or 6 years and you'll catch up to me.
Sucks, believe it or not, I'd love to go crawl under an 18 wheeler, or Fire Engine, Dump Truck, whatever tomorrow...

We've been pretty luck here. Nobody has had much more than a sniffle so far, knock on wood

Happy New Year, here's a cold! Jan 1. Just starting to get over the hump on this one. All congestion thankfully. No bronchial distress.

Day 2 back to work and I froze my *** off! Wife's car said 27, and my work truck said 28 when I cranked them this morning. News said 28 and felt like 18... I believe it!

I got out of the house a few times today. The blue jeans and flannel shirt didn't keep my out vary long.
I've discovered I no longer own a battery charger. I do remember beating the crap out of one (actually slamming it on the pavement) several years ago. Good possibility that I haven't replaced it yet.
Ka'Bluey has had a short in the wiring someplace, for years. I have a couple different type of battery disconnect switch's so I'll pick out one and a good mounting place for it. Hope to get him legal this Friday. Can't wait to get him out and about.

Y'all stay warm

Hey Kurt "Tarhill blue" are you still looking for a straight 6? I came across one this evening on craigslist. Came out of a 76 Maverick with 92K on it.
His name is Mitchell ☎ (919) 819-5016.
