Re: Martin's mi-STRESS, 1965 Long Fleetside C10 "Rebuild in ENGLAND"
Today I went and did a job for a customer . When I was there I got talking to the daughter that had moved back home to look after her mother. While I was there we got talking cars,bikes and trucks as she is a petrol head as well . As I was about to leave she gave me a present . She explained she had it at her home but it didn't go with the decor at her mothers house. So this is what I was given

I think you probably forget the impact you have on other people's lives Martin. Many of the people you deal with are surrounded by other "disabled" people in their friendship circles, not a lot of Boxers, rally drivers, rock stars hang around with cripples of all descriptions. So when you come to do a job, your incessant energy, talking, and different world you live in with motorbikes, cars etc, is a whole new world to them, and you do make their lives easier, better etc. Just think a guy like Russell that we previously got sorted out. So when this lady meets you, has some shared interests with you, it is only natural that she would gravitate toward you. You should feel both honoured and pleased at the gift. And your mum should be proud of the difference her boy makes in people's lives. Like Don said....... ;) ........ Payback should be interesting.:mm: |
Re: Martin's mi-STRESS, 1965 Long Fleetside C10 "Rebuild in ENGLAND"

Re: Martin's mi-STRESS, 1965 Long Fleetside C10 "Rebuild in ENGLAND"
Well today I had a day off to get a little truck time in . The first thing I had to do was clear the garage, so I could get the cab out as it was at the back . The problem was it only had three wheels on the trolly it was on , because when it was pushed into the garage last time the back wheel on the trolly broke .
So the first thing I did was to repair the broken wheel by changing all four with taller and stronger wheels http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g1...psxnt0zfv9.jpg I then tried lifting it back onto the trolly boy these cabs are heavy lifting on your own . Luckily Rian called me to ask how I was getting on . I told him I was strugerling , he said he wad on his way out to collect something and he would call in on the way back as he also wanted to borrow my Sandblaster . Well we managed to get the cab on the new trolly once again my bike lift came in handy http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g1...psi3c5odxz.jpg All rolled back into the garage ready for me to roll out and do the dash removal , then it will be loaded onto the trailer and taken to the Sandblasters , to be blasted and primed . With the Mercedes now gone and the money going in the truck fund its back on track http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g1...psflapxmng.jpg Tomorrow Paul y is coming over to borrow my engine crane . Then over to Rian's in the afternoon for a barbecue so the truck will have to wait till Sunday |
Re: Martin's mi-STRESS, 1965 Long Fleetside C10 "Rebuild in ENGLAND"
Looking good Martin!

Re: Martin's mi-STRESS, 1965 Long Fleetside C10 "Rebuild in ENGLAND"
Ahhhh yes, arent you glad I am a scavenger....?
Those wheels came from the yard last year. And I have to say, having pushed the cab about on both sets of wheels, the new ones are a real pleasure. I see you have not mentioned why you are coming over......... Oooopps... You did. May be a good thing, otherwise we get run over by hungry people. Pity the likes of Paul, Brandon, Don, Clem, John, Bill, Greg and others cannot make it. :mm: |
