Nice truck Collin, looks good seeing a trio of black Ford trucks. Those 6th gen duallies handle nice when your suspension is kept up, that one had a sway bar from a 89 on the front end 7900 lb Ferrari. Lol. Still have the truck, its now on a 89 frame, its getting a retirement make over. That is a truly rust free 78, had about a twooney worth of surface rust on entire truck.

Nice to see it being kept alive. I sold a 1971 F350 dually about 3 years ago, it was a very handy truck around the farm and I miss that one too.

This is my 75, 390 auto. The front end is a 75,8,9 combo, that blue thing attached to the bumper is my monkey trailer. It was my 79 until a drunk driver hit it and bent the bumper, got $1500 for a $325 truck that had already paid me $700 in grant money and scrap aluminum and stainless steel, it was a sandwich truck.




This jag azzhole turned right 130' before the stop sign

Now you know why its called the monkey trailer, it broke my heart big time when I heard my parts truck go ca-ching lol, built FORD tough

There is pavement here too but they are redoing the highway right now and have 14 kilometers in gravel at the moment and shortly will be ripping up another 39 kilometers starting just out of town so have to deal with it every time we leave town. Should have a nice smooth ride out of town once it's all finished.

Brought this home from the car show in Fort Frances yesterday and also won a 3 way tie for best Ford but didn't draw the highest card from the deck to bring the trophy home, the guy with this 40 Ford Deluxe coupe drew an ace.

Congrats on the award John. I was hoping to find a show today but, there were none close. I am also guilty of not taking pictures.

I always knew that you can`t beat FORD tough Perry.
I hated being stuck at the border on my personal trips Grant, that must drive commercial folks nuts!
The on ramp at the end of our secondary highway on the main is being reconstructed but thankfully it`s already been repaved.
Congratulations from me too John!
I`m not much of a picture taker either Ian, my wife takes way more that I do and she has a better eye for that.
Will you come here for the Cruise Weekend this August Colin?
