I got rid of my ''projects'', still want a 53-55 driver with a 302/351 John.
What did you find in Winterpeg Perry? If John isn`t willing I might be depending what it is.

My cousins Cameron and Mike live out that ways. Mike drives a rig and hauls construction equipment and rumor has it that he comes across projects and hauls them back to Cam's 60 acres. Their mother was raised by the town's auto wrecker and my late uncle Dennis had himself a diesel modification shop. The last time that I talked to Mike he mentioned that Cam had a few old trucks and other such things to many on his acreage.

I need to touch base with Mike on some other things and I'll move the conversation over to my projects and find out what they have and what they're doing with it.

Have you heard of SNL trucking out your way Grant, I have the distinct feeling that its owned by my cousin Shannon.

It seems sometimes like he's always on the road, about the only way that I can stay in regular contact is through the Facebook.

Looks like you got the new big gulp Morris.

Did the landlord a favor and tore up the front yard, got half of it put back together.

The new big gulp comes home Monday afternoon Perry, there`s a car show tomorrow afternoon plus I have a few other things to look after. You`re making good progress on the yard when it doesn`t rain.

My jobsite got rained and hailed out earlier in the day so I shut it down and picked up some grass seed from RONA and set upon the front end of the house. Some jackass made a pad out of 24 x 30 sidewalk stones and it looked like crap, something a dopeŕ or drinker would do so that they could show off what kind of lumps they are. Tomorrow I cut some stones and finish off the sidewalk, put down loam and seed it. Monday night I'll put in edging stones around the flower beds from the left over pavers from my jobsite. The whole job will cost me about $17.50, its really beneficial to be in the landscape trade some days.

I drove quite a few trucks like your new one when I was a teenie bopper, but then again, most of us farm boys learned our serious driving in 3 and 5 ton farm trucks. Put a few truck boxes on them also when I worked at New J's and Metals Industry in Brandon.

We only got a few sprinkles last night, it`s getting very dry.
I remember the Metals Industry grain boxes.
