We have several good projects going and many of the newbs seem very promising. At least they keep promising to work on their trucks!
I resemble that statement. But the wife wants a house, I want a finished F1. I never win. (Sorry, not trying to hack this thread)

Give it a month or so and then tell us which was harder. Sweating and swearing in Iraq or doing the same with some of the noobs on here!

You'll have just enuf time before snow to get the 53 drivable again and then next spring you'll be redeployed. Aw s..t, I didnt mean that Dewayne, welcome home.

Slacking, well maybe a little bit. The new guys have been fairly busy but it's not quite like the "Novel" on how to wire a winshield wiper motor. My frame swap article comes close at 16 pages and 80+ pics. I wonder if we could get Blueovalrage back? Then the gang would be back together unless he's still mad at me....

I don't think you'll see Rage hewre soon unless you want to talk Harley, or look good in a skirt. His truck needs lots of love. He'll get around to it eventually, and then we'll see him check back in.

Is your frame swap in the tech articles yet? I need to read it. Peter made it sound like you did a mini truck frame swap?

FTE hasn't got around to hosting it yet but it's hosted WillyB's website at the moment. You can find a link in my signature. It's a long read and it doesn't have to do anything with mini trucks.
