  1. Both knees!yikes!And modified it is.I like that.

    I cant get to my computer in my office,but when I do I will try and find pix of the truck.Its a 35 Dodge ranch truck from Montana.Comes with us to Bonneville every year as the push truck.And Langdons sales castiron headers for the Dodge /Plymouth flaty 6.You can see them in my first photos.They are very nice.

    Doug,How was Hershy?My friend didn't make it over to your spot.He also could not find any 10 dollar nos Chrysler banjo wheels.He said it was one of the best ones he had been too.Bought lot of model A stuff.Cheers

  2. Well ,I got my new knee.Ouch!Hope to be back out to the shop in a week or so.I set the shop up so I could go out and sit and weld .With out having to move to much.

    Now I was thinking?This is a question for all of you scallers out there.Now that I have Tytaium for a knee,Am I stock or a hot rod?Before, it was hard to make it to the mail box.Now I can walk all day,and at speed.

    Let me know.In the fast line ,Dave

  3. Had a great time at the concours today.Went with our friends Jim and Rose.Ran in other freinds.Saw cars I had never seen before.This is a show you have to see.The grounds are just fantastic.They have lots of concerts here too.I think next year Jim and I will bring a couple of cars.Its just northern californa laidback.Cheers

  8. Hey Doug thanks,I saw that guy giving an interview the next day.And a guy from I think Korea put his Suzuki on its roof.He had no interperter with him.No know what he was saying.Looking forward to next year.And on the long drive home we came up with more crazy stuff to build.It will take about 2 years for that stuff to see the light of day.Now if we could only get paid for this stuff.

    Now back to work here.Stay tuned
