Selling my crewcab dually to fund my 66 and 61 projects,against the wifes wishes. I will probably miss it greatly,but I really want to drive my 66 again,,,,,,,,,so sacrifices will be made.

Finish stripping down the frame of my Flatbed project and get it all cleaned up. Need to strip and repaint it all. Coin toss on color between red and black. Ever see a truck with an all red chassis?
Figured it might be a clean look under a black flatbed. TR

Personally, not really anything to report. I found a donor bed and got the floor cut out. I also found a nice cloth bench seat that I'll use when I get around to working on the interior. Now just waiting for some extra cash..

well i did get my shop more organized, my drill press back together and bus moved where i dont have to trudge to the back 40 to look for parts.

collected several more trucks during the year, 4 slicks, a dent, a van and an 80s bronco.

rebuilt the 223 for my 61 short uni and did a bunch of other stuff to it as well.

for 2010 its getting it done in time to drive it to Iowa.

Main resolution:
Stop buying yard parts for slicks that I don't need.
Stop buying all the good tailgates.
Stop rethinking and changing my idea for the Slick everyday.
Stop PFM making from jokes about my truck.
Give PFM his tailgate.(the good one)
SPEND LESS TIME WRITING POSTS AND WORK ON THE TRUCK.
