Frosty beverages.

Ah yes. When I was young I saw a sign that said; "Drink Canada Dry."

The best I could do was get them working nights.

As a result, I probably drank more than my fair share and so for the last 25 years have been confined to Root Beer instead of the Barley pop. i don't mind. There's not much better than a frosty A&W mug in one hand and a cookie in the other.

I would never eat all the cookies, I just simply can't keep up with the girl scout factory. Before reading this, I just want to say I walked thru a JY today, and I even got started on the 48 Today. And yes, Keith deserves lots of cookies!!

as quoted from mt54

“DARKSIDER”

One who is not bound by the constraints of OEM or opinions of others. One who strives to mold his visions and youthful thoughts of cool into his project. One who trudges forward with a plan despite the discouragement of others. One who thinks a walk though a local salvage yard is better than Christmas morning. One who is not trying to reproduce something that has been made before, but rather trying for a one of a kind creation. One of finds any color he chooses to be correct. One who can do and redo and sometime redo agin,too get the vision just right. One who accepts COTTIE BOBIN as a common mode of operation.

Welcome to the DARK SIDE The Cookies are GOOD……….

We Salute:
Heres too you Mr. Darksider and all Darksiders everywhere, for without you a old Ford truck would be just a new looking old Ford truck.

Where I am.

I am in Moore, OK.

What brought me here from the great white north was the birth of my first grandchild. It was time for me to leave AK (after 18 years of self imposed exile) and come south to be closer to family. This is as close as I could get to them and remain with my career and retain my retirement benefits.

Now in the Heartland, (not the heartbeat land,) I get to play with my big *** tonka toy!!

Blue Oval forever, forever Blue Oval.

Keith,

I checked out your profile page as directed. Awesome talent you have there. I can't wait to see the finished truck. I looks truly cool. How long have you been working on it?

No Darkside Forum, we all just mingle here.
Some have a non-Ford key chain and think they have slipped over the edge into total Darkness, if Keith doesn't get some Cookies soon he'll declare that his Truck is Pure Stock.

As far as you being English, I'm sorry.
The easiest way for you to go to the Darkside is to install a Lucas Pressurized Smoke System

Pls set up a picture gallery of your Truck.
I'd like to see some detail on your accessiblity mods, we've had several requests for help in this area and I have a nerve and muscle issue that could go in any direction.

Thanks

Lucas smoke system

Ah yes, Prince Luke. I became familiar with him in my teens while riding a 1969 BSA A65L Lightning.

People don't realize it but, most ignition systems don't use electricity to operate, they use smoke. The trouble comes when you let the smoke out. It's just to hard to get it back in.
