Hi Rich thanks for the message! We'll have to get together sometime and look at each other's trucks!

I need to get my brake lights working and get her registered so I can't drive her much anywhere yet, but if you are passing through Marshfield again give me a holler!

Yes a FTE G2G (get 2 gether) of any sort sounds good. I need to work on both of the Ford trucks and then there is always work to be done on the 3rd one. We have not had a FTE Mo chapter G2G BBQ/meet up in quite a while. Work, life, kids, grandkids, covid, more life events and life moving at 100 MPH always seems to get in the way. Maybe this coming spring with enough heads up we can get a date set on the calendar. The tentative plan is probably for it to be at Alans place in Sparta, if he is not at a Monster truck show, fly his rig around.

Of course our local wildman Reebok shirt wearing "RC" drove a chevy and one other guy drove a Dodge...Lol. What ever runs, has gas and can make it is ok. Both those guys have Fords trucks in all state of work/repair/overhauls/restorations. We had a nice BBQ at the park by the Spg Zoo that day.

Another one just out side of Sparta a while back at a FTE members old shop. Next one will probably at his house since he has his own monster truck for the kids to enjoy. And us old kids also. I drove a Dodge that time...What is the world coming too?

This is what happened at one FTE G2G, Alan never disappoints. Even if it is only 10 people there.

I am trying to track down a new FTE member from Springfield that owns a sports bar/restaurant (in Spg) and owns a older (50's) Ford truck. See if we can come to his parking lot/place of buisness for a FTE G2G.

Welcome to FTE!

I’m hoping to have another truck in the next month or two. If so I’ll definitely make an effort to be there.
I was attempting to rebuild my first truck though back surgeries have kinda put me out of it. Been eyeballing a running/driving 78 crew cab so I can putt putt around a little!
