    Thanks for that vlad yeah I forgot about the breather. That’s also coming off. I’m changing it actually I have another one. I’m gonna put on there. That one is a little bent. and the lid has taken some abuse. I’m gonna have to work with that thing as well to get it straight, but yes, I was also planning on painting the nose last not sure where the frame and wheels will fit in.

    Hell, that’s all we got over here. Everybody’s in a big hurry to do everything I broke in with guys that started on chain drives and they weren’t in any hurry to do anything and I don’t know what happened to everybody and why they think they have to race around so fast now .

    And Paul, as I mentioned before I that does not surprise me. The leaders of your nation are not much different than this place. My wife was telling me a lot of people go to Mexico for better meds. They sell you over here they charge you enormous prices for shit that don’t do anything.

    Oh, I forgot to answer somebody’s question. They asked me if I was going to spray the nose myself. Yes, I have a professional body shop spraygun and yes, I am going to paint the whole truck myself piece by piece doors off nose off glass out of it. I’m fixing on, doing the interior first or the roof I bought a bunch of brand new parts from watts anxious to see them all on there brand new marker lights, and an airhorn

    Saran wrap I was thinking of that for the odd angle areas while I was going to Road yesterday that might help out considerably, especially for something completely upside down. put a couple of pieces on and chase it with the saran wrap it keep padding it like a dog ha ha I don’t know. I think a crazy shit.when I’m going down the road. … bob
