Cool...was there much snow? Its supposed to snow tomorrow! You've prolbably seen the "Queen B" running around town. It's a 78 Bronco: two tone blue with 35" tires and a 4" lift. Bought it a year ago for my gf and she insisted on those silly personalized plates! Send me an email and we might head out some time to play in the snow. Rob

Since there's no Montana chapter, I took advantage of your open registration to jump in here with you. Hope you're all ok with that. Shoot, I'm closer to CDA/Sandpoint areas than most of the other cities in Montana. If any of you need anything in the Kalispell area, just let me know.
For those I haven't met yet: I hang out in the 48-60 forum for the most part and I drive a 48 F1 w/ flathead V8 year round.
Also the following project trucks sit in the pasture waiting for a little attention:
52 F2 w/ flathead V8,
62 F100 Unibody w/ 223,
73 F100 4x4 looking for a 390,
77 F150 gathering parts for a warmed up 400.
82 and 84 1/2 ton parts trucks
My youngest son just put a new engine in my 86 150 4x4 302 EFI and is driving it to work. He also has a 70 'Stang fastback project in pieces.
I probably should also confess to having a 97 Dodge 3/4 ton 4x4 X-cab with the Cummins Turbo diesel. (I wish Ford used that engine!) My wife drives a 96 Jeep Cherokee 4.0 HO that needs the radiator replaced this weekend.
That's about enuf......

Keith, I can't believe you gave up Noxon for Idaho..............lol
When I was 11 my first experience with Montana was a week in Noxon visiting some friends. 40 plus years later it's still basically the same.
The Dodge deal is a temporary thing. I bought it from my son so he could buy a gas rig for lion hunting. The diesel fumes plug up the hound's noses - screws up cat hunting big time. I recently changed the heater core - how dumb can engineers at Dodge get? Disassembled the interior of the truck, totally removed the dash, steering column was lying on the seat, must have been 150 screws I took out just to get to the core. Good grief.
Give me a Ford any day! I understand them. But I do love that Cummins turbo!
Ken, I'll ask around about a Montana chapter. Thanks. I didn't realize that's all the guys that were needed.

I actually live in Ontario Oregon, but I claim Idaho. Eastern Oregon is, demographically, an entirely different state than Oregon (Bend-West). I drive a 77 F150 with a 300 inline six. I am in the process of bolting on some much needed breathability. So far it's an Offy intake, Holley 390 carb, Hedman Headers, and flowmaster 40 series true duals all the way down and split rear. Howdy, and if anyone is up in the owyhee's let me know and I'll be there in a hurry. Oh and if you like to chukar hunt, same applies.
