Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
Morning Bret,
This whole gang of Lego figures for £2.00 are going straight over to you in Texas as and The kids are Lego freaks. Thought they have to be worth more than the £2.00 paid for the job lot.

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
Thanks Rian.
Well its been awhile since I posted. Life gets busy. The wife and I decided to sell our house as the market is great right now here in Central Tx. So got the house ready, put it on the market last Friday and had it sold on Sunday! So won't have any truck time in the next few months as I had to move my woodshop out to the big garage where Jaybird is and there is no room to work now. Plus I have to move out of my house on Sept 9th and my new house won't be ready until October 17th. Will be staying with my parents during that time frame. It is going to be an adventure! The best part is we are upgrading to a bigger much nicer house and.... it has a 3 CAR GARAGE!!!!

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"
Thanks guys for the comments
Today was an awesome day. Rian and Martin came down from their Gas Monkey adventure and spent the day. We talked about trucks and everything else. Two amazing guys I feel very honored they drove to meet me in person. Martin twisted my arm into taking the Cutlass out. Great shot Rian Rian wanted to see some local Texas stuff so took him to a mom and pop hardware store. Rian taking photos Ended the day having dinner with them and my family. Martin getting his 14th birthday freebie according to Rian One of the best days I have had in a long time. Cheers Rian and Martin.

What more can one say than a heartfelt Thank You to Bret and Jennifer for ferrying us around to various places like the new house, the car garage with all the treasures. Also meeting Jennifers mum and her dogs ( I love animals so they made my day) she is one very funny lady. Thank you for dinner at the Longhorn as well. My T-Bone and beer were just perfect. I have mentioned it elsewhere, but this trip exceeded my expectations at every place we met people, by 100%

I am proud to call them mates as well. And you aren't kidding about the hoots. Can't wait to see Rian's full adventure report as he got a very funny photo of Martin while I was there...
