And my "Ka'Bluey" is work in progress. I owned him for about 6 years, and sold him about 3 1/2 years ago to help pay for our move to North Carolina. He was sold three more times in the next 18 or so months, and the last owners are friends back home, and also FTE members. They let me know they had him, and that he wasn't for sale unless I wanted him back.
Well, I did want him back. So now he's in my driveway (has been since this last December) about 3 1/2 years later, and 1000 miles away.
The first picture is Ka'Bluey getting loaded on the transport truck, in Souther Missouri. Second is in my drive way in NC.

Bob, you should take Ka'Bluey out to the Mud race with Larry next time he goes. We can trailer him out there. Have to wait till after end of May though, I won't be able to make it prior, or you could just take the trailer and haul him out.

Bud, if you are around you should join in, even if it's to watch!

What's your location in NC.
There are some counties in NC that don't have emission testing, just inspection. Mine (Alexander) is one. We are in the foothills.
