Re: ol Curt Progress

Hi Bob, Happy holidays! Good to see you working on ol Curt again,
I coached youth soccer for a few years and know how time consuming it can be.
It was sure fun but took a lot of weekends and evenings,
Well, kinda like 4-H and FAA is taking my spare time now.
Time spent helping kids is time VERY well spent,
We missed you here, stop in anytime.
Bubba


PS Daughter is still getting lots of recruitment mail from your University. Sure looks like a pretty campus

Oh sure...drive a stake thru my heart! My son was a lot of help, but he gets up at 11! I worked 7 days straight fro 8am to 6pm and every bone in my body aches!
It looks good from a galloping horse but areas I thought I had very slick weren't quite so after I cleared.

Re: ol Curt Progress

It takes a lot to get it to look like a show truck. If people knew it ahead of time I don't think so many people would be stripping it down to the metal. It's not a show truck is it? I know mines not. Looks good from my house.

Re: ol Curt Progress

The truck looks great. What color blue did you use? I'm thinking of using something very close to that but in suede.
