Kevin do your kids want to get your wife a 48-52 F100 planter for mothers day? They have them at Gale Garden center in Brunswick.

Nothing new, going to part out a clean 56 long bed this weekend. I cant believe how many people need parts! One truck will fix 100 trucks!

I got the wifes new ride all cleaned up (1978 Corvette) silver anniversary model. She loves it!

I'm looking for a Cole one point planter for my Farmall Cub

Well, just check' in here.

Had a BAD week last week. Was out my buddy's house helping install motor in race car. Was up at garage and heard that noise you hate to hear.........."Crunch"..............

Turned, looked down the drive to see some stupid #$T^# woman in a minivan(sound familiar) backed into the side of my freak'n truck!!!!!!! DOH!!!!!

Remember my '95 getting totalled last Oct by a woman in a minivan? Ya, another mashed the rear drivers side of my perfectly clean, rust free southern '89 F150. Freak'n NO way!!!

What was once very nice:


is now:



I demanded a police report, got her insurance coming to do estimate. I had two friends already give me estimates to fix it. They both say they don't need to put a full bedside on it as that would put it over 80% value and it would get scrapped. Nice huh?

It's far from new, but you won't ever find a cleaner '89 truck in Ohio.

Then Monday on way home from work two dorks in an Escort try to take the WHOLE drivers side off as they try to change lanes and NOT look . I swear I'm doomed Not sure if I want to get back on the motorcycle?

Those 78 corvettes are getting really cheap to buy now. I have had 2 Indy pace cars and sold them when they were big bucks. The one had 20k miles!!

Drove some of my trucks around and getting the 57 ready for color.
Had fence guy here for new privacy fence on the back40. Post holes are in.
Going to have trucks in 3 locations now. WEST......HERE......FLORIDA.
Plan on buying up ALL the cheap 56s.
Also sold a vanbody box and still have another for sale. Nice parts storage.

No doors or fenders for a 71.
Have lots for a 56.
Will keep my eyes open for them for you.
I go pickin' nearly every day. Just picked 4 22.5'' wheels for a big truck.
Really good price.
