I got the motor in the trailer to haul to my brothers house tomorrow. Got the doors bolted on for the trip to Idaho.

How are you moving it - U-Haul? Don't forget to strap your hood down.

Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3
This working 10 hr. days 7 days a week, doesn't give much time to work on the truck. However I did get the decals on the tailgate!
Somehow with the truck in the garage, a bird was able to give me it's opinion although I'm not sure if the opinion was if it liked it or not! Jim W. |

Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3

Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3
Getting ready to make an evacuation escape with my truck as this massive forest fires marches steadily toward my house. It's about three miles away now. Here's a photo of the fire from a local webcam, then a photo of Interstate 5 stained red from all the fire retardant bomber drops:
EDIT: Ha ha, my spell-checker turned "retardant" into "retarded," lol! https://kqennewsradio.com/2019/07/28...o-11000-acres/
