Happy Monday mornin'all. Sherm. When I had a company truck, I used it 24-7 and estimated the personal mileage. I just gave them a rough daily mileage to work and back. Your taxable benefit, if I recall is based on a yearly depreciated value of the truck, plus personal mileage. Not a bad deal to drive a new truck. Boy did we get rain/hail yesterday. Sunny one minute pouring the next. Depressing to say the least. I did make a bracket to mount the remote brake reservoir on my 56. Crazy busy here this morning. Gotta run. Have a great day guy's.

They really were, a good turn out at both shows and some nice 53-56 F100`s for a change.

We really need the rain but certainly don`t want any hail!
For my 53 M100 resto rod I bought Mid Fifties fire mount brake boaster/master cylinder kit, it came with the under dash reinforcing bracket and portioning valve.

Sorry John, I never remember to take along my camera and I have an old flip phone so no pictures. There was a really neat 53 F100 with a 351 Cleveland engine, satin black and so clean that I`d love to have taken a picture of.

Hello All ! Hope all are well .
Hot as heck down here . AC work is rolling in .Autos are getting towed in ...
Amazing how many people do not maintain their automobile !
Weather swings , hot or cold , show many ill maintained vehicles on a hook.
Have Fun , Be Safe !

Morning boys... Had a little shower last night. We need more, but its better than nothing.

Thanks for your input on the vehicle situation. I looked it up on the CRA website also. Seems pretty straight forward, just have to keep track of work use vs personal use. Get taxed on personal use, not on the work use. Makes sense.

A cooler day today hopefully. Have a great day guys!!
