not really the lottery but it was a decent score ... most of the stuff will need some massaging.

Question is, how to fit a couple into your baggage.

I am sure this was not as easy as Clem makes it out to be.

A lot of hard work goes into getting to he point where he is now with his yard.

Well do e Clem!!!

Thanks to guys like you, armchair mechanics around the world can possibly progress past certain dead end spots in builds.
thanks Rian, sometimes you just fall into this stuff and it doesn't smell to good... this time... not too bad.

Re: tuba trucks

Looks like a few of your 4 headlight grilles are missing the headlight rings, I just happen to have a set that I am fixing to throw away because I will never build a 4 headlight truck.

Re: tuba trucks

sunday afternoon my girl and i took a trip out into the wilderness. we were in search of a utility bed truck that was in decent shape. many miles later we happened upon the place only to learn that decent means different things to different folks. plus it wasn't a true utility bed, just a step-side half ton with some boxes bolted to the sides. kind of homemade and not well done. we looked around the property and found some cool old cars as well as a couple of trucks but really nothing i wanted to drag home... especially since they had submerged to the axles with trees growing all around.
live and learn... at least he was a nice guy.
