John has the same compressor and every once in awhile you have to stop and let it build up.... or don't hold the trigger in for 5 minutes like I do! Wouldn't be a bad idea to add an extra tank to your compressor....

wow, we just passed 1,000 posts... guess I need to get busy on this truck...

I've been considering it, but waiting on a deal I can't pass up on a 2 stage compressor.

The extra tank would help out on it as well.

Isn't it funny that a couple of 50 degree days and the mind immediately starts thinking of carlisle?!

I'll bring my parts,you guys bring the blaster and oven!

There are a few soda/media blaster vendors there. You would think they would have a working setup to showcase their products.

I definitely think you're on to something Mike

Actually, you wouldn't need the oven at the August truckin nats, it is certainly hot enough to bake things.

Alan's Classic · 03-09-2010, 10:58 PM

Man, your cheating. J/K We have to do a drive by and can only see what they have from the street.

Awesome pics, looks like fun.

msgross · 03-09-2010, 11:01 PM

we have found a few hidden spots that way, one guy wouldn't let us look around at all when we drove out... he had a ton of 50's and 60's ride rotting away...

CARZ1968 · 03-10-2010, 01:07 PM

Is that last pic the parking lot at the super walmart?

sdailey · 03-10-2010, 03:23 PM

Cool pics Mike. I never got a good view like that riding in the back of CH-46's and 53's.
