It has a 350 Big Cam Cummins with a 13 speed, neither are original to the truck. The blue might be a give away but it is an old Jays truck.

I remember Jay`s nice fleet of Fords Colin. My 1988 L8000 was a low mileage department of Sk highways truck.

Hello Gerry, it`s now back down to freezing here too.
Looks it`s a right off Perry, the wall will take a bit of work to fix.
Good evening John, did you work some more on your 56 today?
Hello Morris... I did do a bit of work on it today but was also baby sitting a 140 lb Rottweiler that belongs to a neighbor until her parents got home. He's a real sweet dog...

That's a good looking truck Morris. The long wheel base makes the truck look nicer to me.

When it`s a 140 lb Rottweiler he better be a real sweet dog or I`m outa here!
Thanks Colin, it was just long enough for a 13 ft gravel box. Maybe being a single axle makes it look longer.

He's just a little guy that requires a lot of attention Morris, this was taken last summer when he came home from his swim in the river...

With cats, you give your neighbor the keys to your place as they dont stick around if you drop them off on somebody.

We didn`t get a dusting of snow in the last 2 nights, it`s a rare occasion when I don`t have to sweep off my deck and sidewalk.
Wow, he looks like a real sweet guy John. I once inherited a real old dog that looked to be part Rottweiler and she was a real nice, calm dog too.
Good afternoon Grant, hope the sun is shinny your way too. This morning started out a bit chilly but my trip to town was a real pleasant one on such a sunny day.
Our Chinook, if you can call it that Perry, will hit 3°C Sunday then dip down to more seasonable -10°C by Wednesday. As long as we don`t get into the -30`s°C I can handle it. Is it the neighbors or the cats that don`t stick around.......
