John!

I clicked on the two trucks at the top of the page. First thing up was on a guy in Dryden that has a bunch of Ford trucks. Maybe you already know him.

That's the nice thing about having a dog, you can go out and blow off and nobody knows any different. LOL

I don't know the guys name, he is right on the highway in Dryden. He asked me if I would be interested in restoring an International panel. He likes things done for nothing and won't deal on any of the trucks in his yard and will never do a thing with them...
