Stripped multiple layers of paint and primer from both doors and what do I find underneath?????

NOTHING!   No filler, no rust holes whatsoever. Just a small crack where the mirror bracket attached to the door. Oh, and a dent the size  of a quarter.  I can even see the factory spot welds that hold the door skin to the door frame.

I guess this makes up for the tank body that needed a "little work".

I wasn't as lucky

The wire from the load side of the brake light switch goes through the turn signal switch and you will  have  left and right turn signal leads coming from the switch to go to the rear of the truck.  These will also take care of the brake lights. There are 2 other leads from the switch that run the front turn signals which are isolated from the rears so the fronts don't come on with the brakes. Most of the time green is right yellow left and brown running lights.  If you have left and right leads already hooked up disconnect the wire bugged off the brake switch and see if everthing goes normal

I did not see much this week, so I didn't take many pictures of it. Didn't really go too far, went to Milton, W.V. and back to Petersburg. I saw this mill roll in front of me going up Sandstone Mtn.

Then I took a load of pipes to Blackstone, Va, a van load to South Boston, and a load of kyanite to Sanford, N.C.all in the same day.

Saw this flag on a hill from Griffin Pipe.

Old truck by the field.

A Ford for sale in Concord, Va.

Jo's been after me to make a meatloaf for a while, so I did. Last one I made like this I cooked it on the grill, but it was a little chilly yesterday, so I just put it in the oven. I was going to do the fancy weave/lattice deal with the bacon, but I ended up just stacking a pile of bacon on it. I didn't use a loaf pan, the top pan has holes in it so the grease could run out into the baking dish it was sitting on.

I'm all about eating healthy, that's why I only used 14 slices of bacon instead of 15.

It was very tasty!

I've never liked meat loaf but this is changing my mind 

Could edge the whole lawn in under 30 seconds

Now that I've seen a video of myself in my b pick up I'm thinking I would have been better off with an R model. I look like Maggilla Gorilla on his mini bike.

Jay, Thanks again for going over the crane truck for me. I appreciate it.

any one interested in my f model thought I had it sold but no responce

Love to buy that but I just spent a lot of money on a crane truck this morning.

Can anybody recommend a good driveaway service to get a small crane truck from Ohio to Boston? Single axle Kenworth T300. I got what I feel is a good price from a J&J Driveaway Inc

but I have never needed a truck delivered before. Just wondering if anybody knows of them or has had good luck with someone else.

My truck was a member of your family at one time, your father rescued it from a field somewhere in Ct. , sold it to a guy who sold it to a friend of mine and it ended up with me.

Wider does look better

Or could recommend an inspection company in Ohio?

Talking to a guy just south of Youngstown about a crane truck he has for sale and wanted to see if anyone was real close could put eyes on it. Can't justify airfare car rental and hotel for this just yet

Thanks

This says it's good for welding plastic radiators

Now that's something you don't see every day, huh?

little better this time, maybe fenders tomorrow
