thanks Jerry.. I talked to Robin Wed he 8th.. he was still in CCU but was doing well....

anyone heard an update on Kid?

you know Tom and Kathy, they always have them old trucks following them around.. lol

thanks Tom that makes me feel a whole lot better on my choice.. I did a little research before I bought it but I need to start getting the parts that are ready painted and reassembled... that was the reason for asking about blending them..

I am with you Grump.. lol love the visual of that tractor Pat.. did your Dad coordinate his clothes with the tractor when he used it? hahaha

thanks Chris.. here is my update.. I met up with Tom, flashbackf100s.com , at Carlise the first weekend of August.

I was headed out the door on the 14th to a show with cooler and coffee in hand. off the back stoop and slid my left leg out from under me and twisted and fell on top of my right leg. got up, brushed myself off, went in and changed shirt, told Kim what I did, went and loaded up and drove 2 hours to M...

OK, hoping to get Eventually back to looking her best but without so much white this time. going to leave the top and back of cab white and everything else will be Orange. going to be doing it all myself with help from friends so she wont be perfect but then again, she is my driver and my work horse...
