Hahahahahahaha...
I thought there was a significant difference between "patina" and "imminent implosion"... I must have been wrong.
And, I owe my brother Thanksgiving dinner for the rest of my life; you all don't know how awesome he has been to me in the last two years alone... He is one of the two best brothers a guy could ask for. This truck is just the latest installment. I am really excited about being able to get it going again when i come home.
BTW, my intention is to take the plow off it first, and after we have it roadworthy again, then perhaps putting a newer plow (i.e. not ugly and worn out) back on it. But, I want to get it back to its original muscular profile first.
oh, and FetchMeAPepsi, yours is the rebuild thread I have been following with gusto, .. and, I can see the pictures on my laptop back in my barracks, so the red-Xs are only on the other computer I was using.
Mr. Pepsi (shorter than your whole profile name), I love your logic in doing your work, and hope to use the same, rocket-scientist-like Vulcan reasoning when i do my "rehab" on ol' Jimmy here.
Cecelia looks like a great truck, and your pit-crew is top-notch!
