It now just is sitting by the shed. Brought the 69 in to start looking over the knocking sounds. Not sure what is knocking in it yet. Maybe I'll get lucky it's a cracked flexplate. Hopefully I can find out some stuff before mty surgery and get motivated when I can work on it some more.

It's sad to see that. I always followed your progress on your truck. I hated to see it parted out like that. Feels a little like losing your favorite dog.

What kind of surgery are you having?

**Palf70Step** · 12-26-2005, 08:58 PM

I know what you mean, but I'll have the frame and a cab from the 69...so who knows what may happen then.

I have to have a tumor removed from my foot. Hopefully I'll only be peg legged for about 2 weeks.

Wishing you all the best with the surgery, Bill.

Good luck with the surgery. So the farm truck is no more.

**Palf70Step** · 12-27-2005, 11:56 AM

It will relive in spirit though, or when the cabs are swapped around.

You can't totally kill a MS farm truck.

**Boog** · 12-27-2005, 10:01 PM

But you DID kill a Ms farm truck. Just look at it!

I've missed something. What happened? You were doing all that work to the bed and cab and all. You change the direction you were going with it or what?

thejoker · 12-28-2005, 09:56 AM

Good luck with the surgery Bill. Holler if you need something!
