Good morning Troy and the rest of the crew!
Yup, a busy weekend for sure. A nice long drive to IA to pickup Mason's truck. Got a real good look at it on Sunday. Rear brakes leak....UGH! I hate brakes, especially rusty ones. Bottle fed it to get it running and sounds really good. He is tasked with pumping out the bad gas from the tanks so we can put new pumps in.
Oh yeah its a 1988 F150 4X4 XLT Lariat 4-spd manual with 109k. Its not gonna win any car shows but good runner for a 16yo

Geez a busy Monday for me today.
Conrats on the truck purchase for Mason. Sounds like you will have some projects to make it road worthy. Glad it runs good though....at least off the bottle.

Good evening guys.
Congrats on the truck Cory. Mason will like that.
Camping was pretty good except I had another gall bladder attack Friday night. That was fun. But I did have my pre-op checkup this afternoon so hopefully this will all be over soon.
Good to get projects out of the way Troy.

it will be legal in MN. Since MN police can't pull people over for "frivolous" traffic violations like expired tags Minneapolis Police to No Longer Stop Drivers for Minor Violations Like Expired Tags (msn.com)
