Turn and burn in the field!!!

AD, your truck is flat killer. How is the metal work coming along these days? I read your journal over at the Hot Rod forum, great tech on the flexible shape patterns. Would love to put that to practice.

Thanks Sqrints- Come on to the MetalMeet gathering in Oblong in October and you can use flexible shape patterns with some expert tutoring...not me by the way.

Actually that was only the second time in my life I had been in Kansas. My Gal cousin lives in Park City along with my aunt and I and my other cousin had gone there for a family reunion and birthday party for my aunt and cousin. Command performance type of thing.

I'll be back down that way when the truck is done though as I plan for the Lonestar Roundup to be it's first road trip and then a trip to Salina for lead sled .
