Thanks!

You are correct, sir. That's a pool table/parts storage shelf. We need to get these trucks together so we can start using that again.

See? This is the danger of too many pictures. The photo-hounds start making comments about your non-truck stuff. Pretty soon they're inviting themselves over for dinner and never bother to bring any beer.

Wow, your rates are about half of what I expected. I figured it would cost at least a case or more. That is the going rate here in Arizona. To bad Your so far away.

Re: Progress on my woman's '65 Short/Fleet.

A little progress is better then nada! Yesterday I painted the air cleaner top to match the v/c's.

I need to bring the truck to town so we can progress a little faster on this project. The weather's finally getting nice and it would be nice to get my woman's truck in driving condition...

Thanks!

The weather hasn't been that great out here lately. It was horribly windy there for a while, we had a few late snow showers with few nice days in between. It's supposed to be nice here for a while now. Hopefully we can get some stuff done.
