Its a very detailed model railroad layout.








At least thats what I thought!

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

Here is a load of dried oak in the K20 in preparation this past week for -30F temps!

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

I was so intent on doing the job, that I almost forgot to take a picture. No, I wasn't about to put everything back for a legit photo. :lol: First real haul with my "new" '68.

RTTS car show in Myrtle beach SC. Loaded the ramp truck up with Woodie and 3 bikes and pedal car. Drove 5 hrs.:chevy:

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

Stopped by a local thrift store. Bought a love seat. Drove the Blazer home , got the the Truck and went back to haul it home . Long story short here we are waiting for my help to unload into the house.

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

I finally used the ramp truck for what it was built for!
I brought the 68 step home.:chevy:

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

COOL! I bet you Daughter is stoked.

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

I'm not shy, *had to* grab this Oak that the City was going to take away. Going to get the rest in the morning, need to cut shorter with the chainsaw.

Anything good in that trash pile? :lol:

Salvage Oak Wood
 

? What good is it ? .

I have two oak trees I hate, they fill my yard with debris .

Re: Salvage Oak Wood
 

I built an outdoor fire place to burn the dead fall limbs.

Backyard Fireplace
 

Sounds good ! .

? Does oak burn slower ? .

I love the smell of pine burning but was on the rural fire dept. in the 1960's and burning pine caused lots of chimney fires.....

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

Yes she sure is!
We got the motor sent off for rebuilding and have been buying up parts ever since.:chevy:

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

Here are some pix from original owner (my PO). She soon discovered the horse trailer was the tail wagging the dog— never actually hauled horses with it. She was a very nice woman who kept impeccable records of my rig ( or as she calls it “Mr. Truck”)

Re: Backyard Fireplace
 

My preference is Alligator Juniper, it's much easier to split, and burns hotter in my wood stove, does not soot the chimney so much, smells awesome when burning, but allergies go nuts about this time of year from them. When Oak is seasoned, it's added only when the fire is hot from the other wood, otherwise it goes out, otherwise it can put out heat for a longer time.

special-K: Not in that pile. But down the street, I grabbed two pieces of Ralph Lauren Polo Sport luggage, might have gone on only one trip, perfect condition. There was another suitcase, but it was ugly. Lots of BBQs and other metal objects, am tempted to grab all that and sell at recycler. :lol:

This was after the second load, doesn't look like much more. Guessing a 1/4 to 1/3 cord.

Firewood
 

THANX ! .

I spent most of to - day trimming an elderly Tangerine tree and was wondering if the wood would smell nice, I don't think my chimney is safe anymore (1923) so I didn't save any of the wood I cut up .

I too have a hard time passing trash piles when I see them ~ my super heavy duty branch loppers came from some old man's detritus after he died, I have tools & Motocycles I've picked up on bulky item day....

When old folks die 'round here they tend to empty the house and curbstone close to everything .

Re: Backyard Fireplace
 

I just remembered a word I used to hear used a lot a long time ago... Scarf! Or "Scarfin' on stuff", "I just scarfed this wood off the curbside"! :lol:

BTW, day before yesterday I was following some back roads to get to a big fire I spotted and ended up on this dirt road where the county had cut some trees and there were a few cut to length rounds of locust (my favorite) laying. I stopped right there and made space in the back of the Suburban and commenced to scarfin' :lol:. Luckily on Monday I emptied it out and only had things I needed that day in the back. It's split and in the shed!

Picked up a sofa today LOL. Not exactly heavy hauling but it's hauling! Think I'll leave the topper off for a while.

I think I can hear your truck thanking you for making good use of it. Good looking truck. Looks like a good ole lumber yard

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

About ten years ago the wife and I took a road trip to your part of the world in our big block 70 El Camino. I had never been exposed to ethanol and filled up with a big dose of it in St. Paul. The car developed a severe vapor lock and I had to stop in St Croix Falls and adjust the fuel line so it didn't touch the water pump.

That's some pretty country around you.

It is a good old lumberyard, Amish operation without forklifts. They load and unload everything with a overhead beam with air powered forks. Nice bed repair killer

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

Killer where did you get the floor wood?

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

Killer, that floor looks awesome!

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

The machine is around around 14k, and the trucks close to 10k alone.

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

had to give them credit, all I did was put it on..

LoL actually a ton of work, 2 coats epoxy 6 coats spar varnish plus sanding..

but according to their tech, I could sail that bed across the Atlantic :lol:

cool guy in Iowa hooked us up right with a dandy work truck..

can't thank him enough :D

mar-k pine kit with non polished ss strips and bolt kit and new rubber shims..

fit was excellent! even in an old rusty bed, squared right up..

thanks!

gettin ready to do the red longhorn out here in ca..

I was going to try painted since truck is all red but the missus wants the epoxy and varnish :rolleyes:

soooooo much work and I really don't want any debate on using it like a truck, ugh!

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

Killer your floor is beautiful, but since I work the Longhorn, I'll paint mine as original. My floor is still all there, but the time is coming.

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!

Chevyland was teasing me about these short cans of Belgian goodness last time he was here :lol:

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
 

Posted once before on this thread. Haven’t hauled anything with my ’67 for a while because I’ve been doing rust repair on the rockers and cab corners. Got it put back together enough to take to a local show in Yakima, Wash. in August hauling my ’62 Cotton Cougar British trials bike. The bike was sold new in Sunnyside, Wash., by Evel Knievel when he was a salesman at Pomeroy’s Cycle Shop in Sunnyside, before he was famous. The bike was raced locally on flat tracks and in trials races in the area. Don Pomeroy owned the shop at that time, and later moved it to Yakima, and his son, Ron Pomeroy, has a graphics business in Yakima and did the graphics on the door of my truck. The car parked next to my truck is my ’40 Chevy Master Deluxe sedan, the Hot Rod Prototype. ;)
