Im currently in Grand Island but have lived in Omaha and MPLS most of my life.
So where in GI are you at? I don't live in GI, but it's where I go to school, etc. I'm a senior at Northwest. If you ever see a white F-150 flying around town with big ol whips on it.....it's probably me!!!!

EDIT - 400th post.........woo woo
I live off of Stolley Park Rd near the cemetary.
We painted your auditorium at NWHS this summer - fun project! We also built the Taco Del Mar and have built or remodeled all of the Subway stores in town. Im in Hot Springs, SD remodeling a Subway this week.
I drive an 03 F550 with a custom 11' utility box - my dad drives a 00 Chevy 3500 CC dually - both white with Nelson Contracting signs on them.
Well, I'll certainly keep an eye out for those two pickups. We don't really spend alot of time in the audiorium, in fact I've only been in it once - the first day of school. Most of us try and sleep while the principals, etc. talk...........
Hey Cowboy we got fresh meat runnin around. I saw a post by Mr Incredible today. You linked up with him? I think he might be in Lincoln. We shall see . . .
And while I'm at it, I dont think I ever broke the ice and told you all who I am. Name is Randal. I'm a contractor in Lincoln. Married, 2 kids, #3 probably in a couple of weeks here now. Big white truck with a big white trailer. If you get stuck behind me while I'm towing, just try an keep up!
Currently living in Kasson, MN by Rochester. I work as an RN at the Mayo Clinic. I moved up there 7 years ago, out of college for the job. Lived in Spalding, NE. My family is still there along with my wife's. I will always call NE and Spalding my home state and hometown. I am hoping to move back sometime in the future.
I am currently in the process of restoring a 77 F250 4x4. Truck is located in Spalding, so I get back every now and then to visit and work on it. My 3 older brothers are in to the Muddrags down there. I spend a great deal of time on this forum. Before I started my project, I never really had a clue on the 70s Ford Trucks. I have learned alot on the site.
Welcome Patrick join our nice forum here. You know when you mentioned Spalding an that your brothers were in to mud racing then checked your gallery. I knew right away what family you were talking about. I live about 30 miles east off Spalding an go over there for tire service quite often. Your brothers are pretty tops in there sports. I havent watched them run but they are always tops in there association they run with. It kind off gets in the blood once you do it. Hey Im glad to know you like our forum. You should check out the offroad forum theres a bunch off 79s over there too. You should get your brothers to join up here. But maybe theyalready are. They would love that offroad forum. Tons off mudracers over there. Where is Kasson,Mn from Nebraska.
Im kind off a older Fords fan myself especially off the 73s-79. I always like going to Spalding because a lot off people still ae driving those trucks yet. A guy in our ofrum Silver highboy has a bunch off htem old style in his gallery. Check it out.
I definately will mention them to join the forum. I had mentioned it before, but that was when I first joined FTE and I think they just forgot or I forgot to mention it again. This is a great Forum. Also, it's nice to know that people from close to home is on this forum.
I only get to see my brothers run once or twice during the summers. Wish I could get back more often. It's fun to watch. People ask if I'm building a mud truck and since I'm not around there, I'm just building me a very nice driver. However, Denny, talked me into building a 521 street stroker for it. Can't get away completely from the racing part of it. It's slow moving, but I have many things lined up for it, just kinda waiting for spring and summer to start moving along quicker.
Kasson is in the very south east part of Minnesota. Just North of I-90. I usually travel to Yankon, SD over to Vermillion, than I-29 to Souix Falls and then hit I-90. And I'm about 1 hr 15 minutes south of the twin cities.
Your 30 miles east of Spalding, huh? That would put you over past Albion. I used to work for the tire station in Spalding when I was in highschool/college.
97nukeford-
Thanks. I can't wait to finish it. Like I said, moving slowly, but I want to do it right. Can't bring it up to MN, yet because of some of the things lined up in NE to get done. But hopefully, this summer I will be far along enough to bring in up to my place and continue working on it.
Thanks for the replys.
