Re: Been a while.......

Hey Greg! Good to see you post! I probably don't need to tell you this, BUT.....Keep your eyes open, and some cash stashed, cuzz when a decent one pops up at a realistic price, they get snapped up pronto, so you've got to be ready to pounce!!

Re: Pics from 2023 Pigeon Forge F100 show

Jeff: Thanks for taking the time to take pics, and to post them!

Looks like a pretty good selection, from survivors all the way to show quality.

Too bad the commute from where I'm at is a Beyotch......a quick look on mapquest puts it at just over 2200 miles, EACH WAY.

Re: OT: 1967 Single Wheel F-350 Front Brakes

No hard data to back it up, but to me, if the GVW goes up, one would expect that they put enough brakes on it to stop the heavier (loaded) truck?

Re: another interesting truck.

Interesting, but I'd have to see the Data Plates and some documentation before I'd 100% buy into them being legit.
Anyone can stick some badges on a vehicle, and one would hope a Museum would do their due diligence, rather than take what they see at face value.

I expect what you're finding is "Strip Caulk", also referred to by some as DumDum (don't know where or why that started, but I've heard it since the late seventies) It is good for sealing, doesn't get hard (anytime soon), and works good when installing fenders, you roll a little strip down...

Doug: Things are looking good, and any progress is good.

Besides, when have you ever talked to ANYONE who finished sooner than their planned completion date?

I expect your truck will be seen at a few 2022 shows!
