OT: What a year!!

First I got my pic in a national mag at the Supernats, now I find out that my Mack that is in my avatar was chosen to grace a nationally distributed "Old Iron" calendar for 2008. I'm starting to feel famous here, might need to buy a bigger size hat
Check out the preveiw of the calendar here, mines the white R-Model of the left.

COOL man I know just how you feel. When I got my trucks pict in Custom and Classic Trucks mag a few years ago, at the Supernats. My wife said I was hard to deal with! A couple of my buddies who also have trucks bought the mag, and have taken the pict out of it and framed it and put it up on their wall on their garage walls! I have my own fan club! (its only about 3 members) but hey I'm happy Actually when I get really excited about anything, I get Migraine headaches so I was happy to be gettin in a mag, but I had a headache that wouldn't quit!!!

Congrats on the good news!!!! and GOD bless

That's a good lookin' truck Jeff. I know you have alot of sweat, money, and time tied up in that truck, but the best feelin' is getting it recognized for all your hard work. I think that's the coolest R model I've seen yet.

Jeff, I've cleared a space on my dash just under the Boyd autograph... saving it for you, buddy.

One of the beautiful things about this board is that we all revel in each other's triumph. Your news is wonderful and gives me a lift after a hard day of teaching fine arts to little barrio kids.

Congratulations again, Jeff. We are very proud of you and your trucks.

new fan, himmelberg
