Been gone a while



Hey all just wanted to say sorry, I've been gone a while and am just starting to get back on the boards. The wife was nice enough to get me my first Harley and I've been loving the daylights out of it. Now I know many here will Chastise me for this but I cannot help the wind therapy. The Harley has given me a new direction for the truck though, Ol' Paint is going to be color matched to the 100th Anniversery Duece. I plan on painting the 54 the Black and silver like the Harley Fords were. I will add a picture of the Harley so you can see. As it stands right now I tore my Achilles tendon and had surgery 4 weeks ago and have been lurking on these wonderful pages. Still need to swap out the motor in kids Mustang then garage is mine again, Hehehe ***rubbing hands together with maniacal laugh***. I haven't been under the hood in a while what with the American Legion Riders and car shows with my dad I've been quite distracted....But for what it's worth "I'mmmm Baaaack"

Welcome home Kurt, every body with a bike needs a truck, so your all set, you got the best of both. Just remember when on a bike, always ride as if you are invisible, because they do not see you when they make that left turn, there brain is looking for a car and does not see a bike. Nice HD, I sure miss mine.

Thanks Jimmy, Yeah I treat them the same way when I drive the truck. I find it amazing that they will stare at the truck and not slow down. I have been thinking on getting the HD edition emblems and modify them to say f100 instead of 150
