Where did you sell your 70? Hope your cousin is taking care of that F250 - That is a good looking truck. Was it a camper special? I don't think I have seen it around here and I would have remembered it I am sure.

George,

Yeah it was a pretty solid truck. It was an older restoration I brought with me from Montana back in 2004. I don't think it was a camper special. The paint was pretty faded out on it, and the front fenders were just starting to rust again. My cousin lives off of Sioux Rd, a few miles north east from Gibbon. He takes pretty good care of it, but does use it as a work truck. I told him if he ever gets tired of it, I get first chance to buy it back!

Thats was the deal my cousin made with me when I bought my 69 from him - When he saw it about 8 months later he was a little confused. He is not very mechanically inclined and wanted to know if I had waxed it - LOL!

Well just a little BS on my mind, I am missing my old truck. I had an 03 Silverado 2500hd and I traded it to performance toyota in Lincoln last october. For it i got a durango and cash to buy a 90 mustang. got the mustang and was left with this pit of a dodge. So about a month ago I traded my durango on a 2001 f250 4x4 cc - this is a great truck, but sorry to say guys its no 03 2500. Hate me all you want, I am a ford guy too but it just seems that so many fewer noises and problems happend to that truck vs my new one. the ford has 115000 miles while the chevy had 160000. Just a topic for conversation- Perfomance toyota kept it as one of their plow trucks, and it makes me sad to drive by and see it. Anyways just thought I would write about this cuz old trucks just aint my cup of tea.

I've sent out pms/emails to all of the people who have NE on their profile. I am getting in the habit of checking the FTE members list once a month. Problem is about half don't respond.

Okay fellas, I have to post these, since this room has been five years in the making!! Just had the carpet put in yesterday, and the furniture moved back in. I still have to make the shelves for the cable box/DVD player, etc., and I'm going to make a mirror for the back wall of the bar.

I want to fix up my basement but my house was built in 1905 so I need to get a lot of the plumbing moved, furnace moved, floor drain moved, etc, etc, etc! My wife wanted an Old house when we bought ours - I wanted a new house - You see who wears the pants in my family.

The wife and I are usually battling over what project I will be doing next! This room took me so long because if she didn't have something for me, I needed to do something out at her moms, or something else that would keep me from working on it. She been pretty patient with me this fall, Holding off the Honey-dews so I could get it finished.
