    If it is ok, then the next tag will be an old truck. This is the one I'm buying to use as my shop truck. '62 Ford E100. 235ci w/ three on the tree.

    It needs the carb rebuilt and probably the front end and brakes, but not immediately. This is going to be my rainy day transportation to school also.
    That is a century plant. once it blooms it dies. Very distant cousin of a Yucca.

New SS fasteners through out. Rebuilt carbs, new EBC clutch springs and horn installed. New paint. Motor runs strong.

        Dammit!!! Should have checked here before leaving today. There is a ford truck just like that in town. Passed by it twice today!

        Thought we were on some big goofy "art" of some sort.

                In case those 2 trucks don't count, here is an even older one.



                Rode from Kitscoty to Marwayne for those pics.
                I learned Marwayne is a little bigger than I thought it was.

                  Hmm.... That's going to be an interesting one to find. I wonder if any of the RV dealerships might have a restored one on display ? Guess I'll just have to go for a ride and see....

                    They're all over around here. Got cold and rainy again for the week. If it's not gotten by the weekend I can get it...

                        I should have looked earlier, went for a 50 mile round trip to check on a GR650. Passed many old RVs. Can't believe no one can find an old RV.

                        Looks like it will have to be Rick to the rescue again. Shoot, retirees drive them down here, take off the wheels, set'em up on blocks, and instant condo.

                          Cool Rick. I wouldn't know where to find one here...

                            Can't believe something so common has lasted six days. I may have to go find an old RV.

                                Took a ride on my old XT 250 yesterday, so far so good. Tried to put the 550 up on the centerstand, no go. Probably could have, but it would have hurt. So yeah, I can probably find an RV if my wife goes someplace for a while.
